Howards Spikes Flop to Double
Level 10
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Manuel Persico kicked the action off with a raise to 6,000 in early position, seeing the player in the hijack call. Gareth Howard, in the cutoff, then three-bet all in for 84,500.
Persico took some time to consider his options before opting to call. The hijack player swiftly got out of the way.
Gareth Howard: A♦3♦ 
Manuel Persico: 8♦8♣
There was immediate service for Howard, as the flop came out A♥10♦7♠.
The turn 2♠ had no bearing, and neither did the river 10♠, seeing Howard scoop in a full double up.
