Vesty Doubles Through Bonsack

Sylvester 'Vesty' Geoghegan more than doubled up moments ago after getting the best of a coinflip situation against Mark Bonsack.

Mark opened the pot with a raise from under-the-gun and his bet was called by Dustin Fox before it was Vesty's turn to act. From the big blind, Vesty moved all in and his bet was met by a subsequent all in shove from Mark Bonsack, in an effort to isolate Vesty. The move worked as Fox stepped out of the way, and the players tabled the following hands before the dealer unveiled the board:

Vesty: {Q-Diamonds}{J-Spades}
Mark: {4-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}

Vesty got the help he needed from the flop, which came {9-Hearts}{Q-Spades}{10-Spades}, giving him top pair and an open-ended straight draw. The {J-Clubs} fell on the turn, further improving Vesty's hand, but also giving Bonsack additional outs to chop the pot. The last card off the deck was the {6-Diamonds}, a safe card for Vesty, who stacked up just under 200,000 new chips with the win.
