Spencer Finds a Double

Level 9 : 600/1,200, 150 ante

Brady "Brainy14" Spencer opened to 3,000 and a three-bet of 10,800 was fired in by "etxnl01" who was in the big blind. Spencer called and a {9-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{2-Spades} flop landed. "etxnl01" bet 7,772 and Spencer quickly called to see the {q-Spades} turn card.

"etxnl01" shoved and Spencer snap-called for less, putting in 45,548. "etxnl01" tabled {a-Spades}{a-Clubs} for an over pair of rockets but was drawing dead when the Canadian turned over his {j-Spades}{10-Spades}, giving him a straight.

The {6-Hearts} river was irrelevant and Spencer took down the pot for a double to catapult him up to the six-figure mark.
