Trenholme Cracks Aces To Double

Level 2 : 75/150, 0 ante

There was close to 6,000 in the pot on a flop of {5-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{k-Hearts} and a player in middle position bet 2,600. Richard Trenholme was in the hijack and raised to 6,000. The player on the button shoved over the top, covering both the middle-position player and Trenholme.

The player in middle position folded and Trenholme quickly pushed his stack forward, announcing a call.

Richard Trenholme: {k-Spades}{5-Spades}
Opponent: {a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}

Trenholme's flopped two pair put him out in front of his opponent's aces, giving him a great shot at a double. The turn came {10-Hearts} to give him a flush to sweat as well, but the river {8-Clubs} fell clean and he stayed on top. The dealer counted his stack to total 23,750, bringing him close to two starting stacks.
