Hughes Drills a Two-Outer to Eliminate Opponent on Stone Bubble
Level 13
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
On a flop of 4♥10♥5♣ a player in the small blind was all-in for around 120,000, and up against Daniel Hughes who covered him from middle position.
Opponent: J♣J♥
Daniel Hughes: 6♣6♥
The player in the small blind had Hughes crushed with a higher pocket pair, but the 6♦ turn brought in the set for Hughes, leaving his opponent drawing to two outs. The 7♣ river changed nothing for either player, and Hughes took down the sizable pot while bringing Day 1a of the Main Event into the money.
