Duthie Chipping Up

John Duthie
John Duthie
With the board showing {2-Clubs}{J-Hearts}{A-Spades}{6-Spades} and a sizable pot already having been developed, John Duthie bet 5,800 and his opponent tanked before reraising all in. Duthie called quickly, turning over {A-Hearts}{J-Diamonds} for two pair. His opponent showed {A-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}.

The river was the {8-Hearts}, and another has been eliminated. That hand carries Duthie up past 50,000.
