One-Outer for Staats

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

On the {A-}{6-}{5-} flop, Christopher Staats and Aaron Clark bet and raised back and forth to get all of the money in for what would be a 700,000-chip pot. Clark had flopped top set of aces, and Staats flopped bottom set with pocket fives.

Thanks to a five on the turn, Staats made quads and he dodged the final ace on the river to double up in a big way.

Shortly after that, the two battled again, albeit in a much smaller way. On the {9-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{6-Clubs} flop, Staats bet 12,000, and Clark called to see the {5-Hearts} land on the turn. Staats bet 29,000, and Clark folded.
