Russell Spaid Doubles Through David Barter

We caught up to this hand on the flop. With the board reading {10-Diamonds} {8-Hearts} {2-Hearts} David Barter bet 15,500. Russell Spaid raised all in for just under 100,000 total. Barter snap-called and the players showed:

Barter: {J-Diamonds} {J-Clubs}
Spaid: {7-Hearts} {6-Hearts}

The turn came the {3-Hearts}, completing Spaid's flush and leaving Barter drawing dead. The river was the meaningless {6-Spades}, and Spaid doubled up to about 218,000. Barter is still a force, however, with about 315,000.
