Hunt Survives a Classic Flip
Level 18
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Selvakumaran Mahersh raised to 16,000 in early position before Alexander Ivarsson three-bet to 50,000 on the button. Cameron Hunt then moved all in for 154,000 in the small blind, Mahersh reshoved for 402,000, and Ivarsson folded.
Cameron Hunt: Q♦Q♠
Selvakumaran Mahersh: A♣K♣
Hunt needed his queens to hold up to survive, while Mahersh picked up additional outs with a straight draw as the board came 5♠3♣6♦4♥. The J♠ river was safe for Hunt, and he earned the double up.
