Spragg Surges Up the Counts with Aces
Level 9
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
With two players seeing a board of 3♣10♣5♥9♥ and about 11,000 already in the middle, Vasiliy Shvarev checked from the big blind and Benjamin Spragg bet 8,000 from early position. Shvarev made the call.
On the 5♣ river Shvarev changed gear by leading out with an all-in bet worth just over 30,000 chips. Spragg thought for about 20 seconds before making the call.
Shvarev could only show 6♣4♥ for a missed straight draw, turned into a bluff on the river. Spragg tabled A♣A♥ for two pair, aces and fives to take down a healthy pot.
