Sly Doubles Through Johnson

Level 9 : 1,500/3,500, 3,500 ante

Chris Sly's only been in the field a few minutes but he's already doubled up. Keith Johnson opened to 10,000 and James Leary three-bet to 25,000 from the cutoff. Sly then four-bet all in for 88,500.

Johnson thought before five-betting all in over the top, forcing Leary out.

Keith Johnson: {q-Spades}{q-Clubs}
Chris Sly: {a-Spades}{k-Hearts}

"Did you have an Ace?" Sly asked Leary, and Leary said he did.

The flop and turn came {3-Spades}{a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{2-Clubs} meaning Johnson would need to catch a Queen or a club, but the river was the {9-Spades} and Sly doubled up.
