Masters Holds for a Double
Level 24
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
BJ McBrayer opened to 120,000 in middle position and Carl Masters shoved all in for 685,000 in the cutoff. Cody Stanford reshoved all in on the button and the action folded back to McBrayer who threw his pocket nines face up into the muck.
Carl Masters: J♣J♦
Cody Stanford: A♥K♥
The flop came 10♥9♥8♣ and Stanford picked up a flush draw to go with his two overcards. The 2♦ on the turn was safe for Masters and so was the 3♣ on the river as he doubled up.
