Chretien Spikes Turn to Double
Level 19
: 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Christopher Convery opened to 60,000 from the button, and snap-called a three-bet jam of 345,000 from Nicolas Chretien on the button.
Nicolas Chretien: A♣J♠ 
Christopher Convery: 8♣8♥
It was a fair fight, and although Convery remained ahead after the 9♠6♥3♦ flop, Chretien spiked the A♦ turn. As it hit he gave the table a thump in celebration, and the 10♦ river completed the board.
Chretien gave the air another fist pump as he raked in the pot, clearly hyped to remain in the fight.
