Veenboer Doubles Up

Jordy Veenboer and the player on the button saw the flop come down {9-Diamonds} {8-Spades} {5-Hearts}. Veenboer checked and the button bet 1,200. Veenboer raised to 3,200 and the button called.

The turn was the {Q-Spades} and Veenboer bet all in for 7,300. The button called with {Q-Hearts} {8-Clubs}. Veenboer held a straight with {7-Diamonds} {6-Diamonds}.

The river fell the {A-Spades} and Veenboer was able to dodge a full house draw to double up to 23,000.
