Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Annie Duke

Erik Seidel made it 80,000 to go preflop and Annie Duke raised all in. Erik called and showed {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{K-Diamonds}

, putting Duke's {Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

{9-Diamonds}

at a huge disadvantage.

It didn't matter though as the flop fell {Q-Clubs}

{Q-Clubs}

{4-Clubs}

{10-Clubs}

, giving Duke a pair. The {9-Spades}

{9-Spades}

on the turn gave her two pair and the {9-Hearts}

{9-Hearts}

on the river improved her hand even more.

She now has roughly a 3-1 lead over Seidel.
