Faleide Finds the Double
Level 17
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Reid Johnson raised to 25,000 in early position and Samuel Faleide three-bet jammed for 60,000 in the cutoff to put himself at risk. Johnson made the call.
Samuel Faleide: A♣6♠ 
Reid Johnson: A♦K♦
Faleide was behind but the 6♦ in the window immediately propelled him into the lead. The 7♣ and 2♠ completed the rest of the flop.
The turn landed the 3♥ and the river brought the 5♠, earning Faleide the much-needed double up.
