Ryan Kicks Himself to a Double Up

Edward Coughlan raised from middle position and Gary Ryan made the call behind him. The flop was {A-Diamonds} {8-Clubs} {3-Hearts} and Coughlan bet 2,000. Ryan made a raise to 9,825 and was all in. Coughlan called.

Ryan turned up {A-Hearts} {Q-Hearts} and held a better kicker than Coughlan's {A-Clubs} {10-Hearts}.

The at-risk Ryan was able to double up after the turn and river came the {3-Clubs} and {2-Diamonds}. He now has 20,500 chips.
