"GameOfEdges" Cracks Aces To Double
"GameOfEdges" Cracks Aces To Double

"MakeTheHop" was in the hijack and opened to 3,200. "mtubb2455" called on the button, as did "GameOfEdges" in the small blind. "IGOTCRABZ_33" was in the big blind and defended as well, to take postflop action four ways.

The flop fell {9-Hearts}{j-Spades}{4-Spades} and action checked to "MakeTheHop," who made a continuation-bet of 9,600. "mtubb2455" folded and "GameOfEdges" check-raised all in for 39,253. "IGOTCRABZ_33" folded and "MakeTheHop" called.

"GameOfEdges": {10-Spades}{9-Spades}
"MakeTheHop": {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}

"GameOfEdges" had check-bombed their middle pair and flush draw and found themselves with 14 immediate outs to beat "MakeTheHop's" pocket aces. They found gin on the turn {q-Spades}, leaving "MakeTheHop" drawing dead en route to a double as the river came {7-Clubs} to complete the runout and make it official.
