The Proverbial Two Birds

David Penly
David Penly
Hold'em -

Kory Mitchell opens the pot with a raise from the cutoff, making it 4,000 to play. Big stack David Penly makes the call on the button. Shawn Buchanan is in the small blind with 11,000 in chips left, and he moves all in. Larry Satterwhite is next, and he lets out a big sigh before moving his final 7,000 in as well. The original raiser, Mitchell, ducks out but Penly comes along with the call. The hands are tabled:

Penly: {5-Clubs} {5-Spades}
Buchanan: {10-Spades} {10-Hearts}
Satterwhite: {Q-Spades} {2-Spades}

The flop looks good for Penly when it comes down {8-Hearts} {8-Clubs} {5-Diamonds}, giving him a full boat.

If the flop was good, the turn is even better. It brings the {5-Hearts}, the case five making him quads and leaving his two opponents drawing dead and out of chips.

After knocking the two opponents out, Penly has upped his chip lead, and now sits pretty with 226,000!
