Boatman Goes Backdoor In Battle of the Brits

There was plenty of confusion preflop and about five dealers on the table of Barny Boatman after he moved in preflop for his last 1,325 and found himself two opponents who re-potted to create a side pot. The dealer eventually got the main pot and side pots sorted with some help from some frustrated players at the table, and the flop was spread {3-Clubs}{K-Spades}{2-Spades}.

Richard Ashby moved all in to win the side pot as the third player folded. Ashby opened {A-}{K-}{J-}{10-} for a pair of kings as Boatman was in trouble with {Q-Spades}{6-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} for just a pair of sevens.

However the turn was the {5-Clubs} and river the {4-Hearts} and Boatman made a backdoor straight to triple up and save his add-on chips for another time.
