Sparks Spikes the River
Level 11
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Action folded around to Douglas Drees in the small blind, who moved all in covering Steve Sparks in the big blind. Sparks opted to make the call, and was at risk as the cards were turned up.
Steve Sparks: Q♦J♥
Douglas Drees: A♦K♣
Drees remained safely in front through the 5♦10♦6♣ flop and 6♥ turn, but Sparks spiked the Q♥ river to make two pair. That left Drees with less than two big blinds, which were gone shortly after.
