Coffin Chipping Up
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Action went five-ways to a flop of Q♠2♠5♦ with 18,000 in the middle. It checked over to the player in the hijack who bet 5,000 and only the under-the-gun Mark Coffin and Dalton Smith in middle position made the call.
The 5♣ turn checked through, as did the K♥ river. Coffin tabled the winner with 7♣7♥ for two pair, sevens and fives, besting the A♠8♠ of Smith and J♠10♠ of the hijack.
