Atkins Finds the Double Up
Level 6
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Robert James raised to 1,200 in middle position and Charles Atkins three-bet jammed in the small blind to put himself at risk.
"Count please," said James, before the dealer confirmed that the bet was 9,100 total. James elected to make the call.
Charles Atkins: A♥10♠ 
Robert James: 9♥8♥
Both players got a piece of the 8♦10♣2♦ flop, but Atkins' hand proved to be best as the board ran out A♣, J♣.
