Sparks Survives Against Webster
Level 12
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Steve Sparks took his final stand and shoved for 15,000 on the button. Simon Webster made the call out of the big blind to put Sparks at risk.
Steve Sparks: Q♣4♣
Simon Webster: A♦2♥
Sparks needed help, and the cavalry came on the flop when it fanned out J♦Q♠3♥ to improve to a pair of queens and take the lead.
The 9♣ turn was of no consequence, and the 4♠ river upgraded Sparks to two pair as he secured the double up.
