Manley Cracks Aces to Double Up
Level 13
: Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Action folded to Jeffrey Manley in the hijack who raised all in for his stack of 60,000. It then folded to the big blind Brian Duffy who snap called, to put Manley at risk.
Jeffrey Manley: A♦Q♠ 
Brian Duffy: A♥A♣
Duffy woke up with aces in the big blind, putting Manley on the brink of elimination. But the K♣3♥J♣ flop did give Manley outs with a jack to make Broadway. The J♣ on the turn did bring in the Broadway straight, but he wasnt out of the woods yet, as Duffy picked up a royal flush draw. Unfortunately for Duffy, the river was the 2♠ and Manley was able to crack the pocket aces and secure the double up.
