Top Pair Is All Rolle Needs for a Double

Level 4 : 1,800/3,600, 450 ante
"bencb789"
"bencb789"

Joel "Odonkor1" Nordkvist saw action folded to him in the cutoff and raised to 8,700. Benjamin "bencb789" Rolle called in the small blind, as did Charlie "Epiphany77" Carrel in the big blind to take action three ways to a flop of {j-Spades}{9-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}. All three players checked.

The turn came {5-Clubs} and Rolle led out with a bet of 9,800. Carrel raised to 36,000, prompting a fold from Nordkvist. Rolle called, bringing the river {4-Clubs}. Rolle checked and Carrel put Rolle all in for 109,500, barely more than the size of the pot. Rolle made the call.

Carrel's hand of {4-Spades}{3-Hearts} was shown, missing his backdoor open-ended straight draw and winding up with a pair of fours. Rolle showed {k-Clubs}{j-Hearts} for a pair of jacks, good to earn him the double as Carrel found himself with under 100,000 after losing the pot.
