Bates Hits the River to Double
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Melanie Hennigan moved all in from the cutoff on a flop of K♥2♥2♣ and Donovan Bates committed his last 225,000 in the big blind.
Donovan Bates: 9♥6♥
Melanie Hennigan: A♣6♠
"I need two black cards," Hennigan said as Bates was chasing a flush draw. The 4♣ turn was safe for her, but Bates hit the 9♦ on the river to make two pair and earn the double up.
