Ty Johnson
Ty Johnson

After a series of preflop raises, there were three players that saw {a-Spades}{j-Clubs}{10-Clubs} flop and action was checked to Ty Johnson in middle position.

With 15,000 already in the middle, Johnson moved all in for 19,400 and only the small blind called.

Ty Johnson: {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}
Opponent: {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}

Johnson was ahead after flopping a set of jacks but still had a sweat as his opponent held a Broadway draw.

Luckily for Johnson, neither the {2-Hearts} turn nor the {9-Diamonds} river were of any consequence to his hand, and he collected his double-up.
