Brown Wakes Up With a Monster For Double Knockout
Level 12
: Blinds 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante
A player in middle position raised to 6,000 before James Brown three-bet to 20,000 on the button. Jared Reinstein then moved all in for 65,000 in the big blind, the middle-position player also shoved for 70,000, and Brown nearly beat him into the pot with a call.
Jared Reinstein: K♠K♣
Middle-Position: A♥Q♥
James Brown: A♠A♦
Brown had woken up with aces and was poised for the double knockout as the flop came 4♥9♦Q♠. The middle-position player picked up a flush draw on the 7♥ turn, but Brown held up on the 2♠ river to send both opponents to the rail.
