Manny Being Manny

Keith Carter raises from early position, making it 21,000 to skate. From the big blind, Manny Minaya puts in the call, and the two go heads-up to the flop.

The dealer spreads the first three community cards: {3-Spades} {5-Hearts} {2-Diamonds}. Minaya checks, and Carter continues out with a bet of 40,000. Minaya makes the call.

The turn card is the {A-Clubs}, and both players check.

Fifth street is the {9-Diamonds}. Minaya leads out into the pot for 50,000. Carter debates his play for a brief moment before sliding his calling chips into the pot.

Minaya tables {A-Spades} {5-Spades} for two pair, and Carter flips his hand into the muck. Manny Minaya rakes in a nice pot, and chips up close to 400,000.
