Classic Ausmus Double
Level 19
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Brett Bassock opened to 22,000 in middle position and Jeremy Ausmus slid out a three-bet to 95,000 from the big blind. Bassock quickly announced all in and Ausmus was given five seconds to act before throwing his last 2,000 chips into the middle.
Jeremy Ausmus: A♣9♦
Brett Bassock: 9♥9♣
The flop fell A♠K♠Q♥ and Ausmus picked up a pair of aces to take a huge lead. The 8♣ and 10♠ runout changed nothing and Ausmus scored himself an early double up.
"That wasn't a classic flip but it was a Jeremy Ausmus one," Matthew Salsberg chimed in.
