The Batt-Man
Action folded to Nicholas Batt in the small blind and he opened for 75,000. Javier Venegas was in the big with a bigger stack and simply moved all in. Batt called off for 759,000 and the cards were turned up.
Showdown
| Venegas |   |
| Batt |   |
Venegas was behind, but not after the 
flop. The 
turn improved him to two pair, but the 
river gave Batt a bigger two pair! It was a back-and-forth hand that ended in Batt's favor. He doubled to more than 1.5 million while Venegas was left with just 250,000.
