Dream Spot for Borders
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
The player in the hijack raised to 3,000 and Josh Borders three-bet to 7,000 in the cutoff. The hijack made the call.
The flop came 2♣Q♠2♠ and the hijack check-called a bet of 11,000 from Borders.
The turn landed the A♣ and the hijack checked. Borders slowed down and elected to check back.
On the J♥ river, the hijack bet 11,500 and Borders moved all in to put his opponent at risk who had 11,500 behind.
"Did you really turn aces full?" asked the hijack before committing the rest of his stack.
His suspicions were correct as Borders tabled A♠A♦. The hijack showed J♣J♠ before getting up from the table.
