Batrous Spikes the River For Massive Double Off Powell
Level 6
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Around 20,000 was already in the middle as Jason Batrous and Caleb Powell went to the turn on a board of 10♠4♦5♥J♠. Batrous then moved all in for 40,000 from the cutoff, and Powell called on the button.
Powell showed 5♣4♣ for two pair, while Batrous was on a straight draw with 8♦7♥. The river 6♠ gave Batrous his straight, and he earned the massive double up.
"I just got lucky. I tried to steal one," he said.
