Barlow Finds Aces for a Double
Level 20
: 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
From early position, Antonio Garcia opened with a raise to 25,000. Jake Haller called from the next seat, Matt Lapossie called on the button, and Joseph Skinner called from the small blind, before Lou Barlow reraised all in from the big blind for 268,000. Garcia called, and everyone else folded.
Barlow showed the 
, but he was behind the 
for the at-risk Barlow.
The 
flop kept Barlow in front, but the 
on the turn gave Garcia a Broadway straight to put him in front. The 
on the river changed it back to that Barlow had the best hand, and that gave him the win to double him up over 600,000. Garcia was clipped back to 430,000 or so.
