Better Than a Double: Chris Barnett Dodges a Straight to Win

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Chris Barnett was in the big blind and before the action was on him, there would be 63,000 extra chips in the pot.

The under the gun player opened to 21,000 and two players called before Barnett shoved all in for 99,500. The original raiser folded quickly and the next player went all in for 112,000. The last player folded and Barnett showed {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs} against the {a-Clubs}{j-Spades} of his opponent.

The board ran out {q-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} and Barnett held on to win the pot and break the 200,000 mark.
