The Scoop on Mel Judah

On third street, the {7-Diamonds} completes, Mel Judah raises, {7-Spades} calls, {7-Diamonds} calls.

Duke Has 4x More

Annie Duke started the hand with only 3800 and is all in on fifth street in a three-way hand. Duke has {2-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} showing. Opponent 1 has {5-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}{2-Spades}{J-Spades} showing. Opponent 2 has {6-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{10-Spades}{K-Spades} showing. Duke has 2-3 in the hole and lights up - expecting only the low and scooping. "Twos and threes can be a big hand sometimes," she says. She's back up to 15,000, nearly quadrupling on that hand.
