Domination? No Problem for Baekke

Allan Baekke started the hand off by raising to 27,000 only to have James Kilarjian shove all in for 120,000 from the button. Baekke tanked for a while, but eventually made the call.

Baekke: {a-Clubs}{8-Hearts}
Kilarjian: {a-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}

Baekke may have been dominated preflop, but he spiked an eight on the {6-Hearts}{8-Spades}{2-Clubs} flop and managed to stay ahead when sweating the turn and river, which came {5-Spades}{6-Spades}.

There are now 685,000 chips sitting in front of Baekke while Kilarjian has been eliminated.
