Vitch Earns a Huge Double to Seize the Lead

Level 20

PLO

Stephen Chidwick limped in with {J-Spades}{7-Spades}{3-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} and called after Chris Vitch potted with {A-Spades}{A-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{2-Clubs}.

The {2-Diamonds}{J-Spades}{8-Diamonds} flop impressed both of the players and it didn't take them long to get the money in. Vitch continued for 400,000 and Chidwick raised-pot. Vitch shoved over the top for just a bit more and Chidwick called right away.

Chidwick's flush draw was no longer meaningful after the {8-Hearts} hit the turn which gave Vitch a full house. Chidwick had only two outs to hope for, the remaining threes in the deck to outdraw Vitch for a bigger boat. The {5-Diamonds} diamond stayed with Vitch who stacked a massive double.
