Dunlevy Leaves Chatham on Fumes
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Kyle Lin raised to 2,500 in the hijack and Russ Dunlevy called in the cutoff. Maclaren Chatham then three-bet to 22,000 on the button and Lin folded.
"A lot of juice in that squeeze. I probably got to," Dunlevy said before committing his last 22,500, and Chatham called for the extra few chips.
Russ Dunlevy: 8♠8♦
Maclaren Chatham: A♥8♥
Chatham found himself looking only for an ace against Dunlevy's eights, but the 5♣3♦2♦ flop gave him additional outs with a straight draw. The 2♠ turn was safe for Dunlevy, while the 2♥ river improved him to a full house and earned him a double up, leaving Chatham on an extremely short stack.
