The World for Hennigan

The player under the gun limped in before a player in middle position raised to 1,200. John Hennigan called from late position and the limper called as well. After the flop came down {A-Hearts}{5-Spades}{4-Clubs} and all three players in the hand checked.

The turn brought the {A-Diamonds} and action checked to Henninigan who was last up. He fired 1,700. The under-the-gun player raised all in for 10,450 and the player in middle position folded. Hennigan made the call. When the hands were turned up, the all-in player was in a world of hurt.

The at-risk player tabled a full house with the {4-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}, but Hennigan had him crushed with the {A-Spades}{A-Clubs} for quad aces! The river completed the board with the {9-Clubs} and that was the end of the line for the player who was all in. He was sent to the rail as Hennigan moved up to 87,000 in chips.

Hennigan has been on a steady increase all day and every time we check in on him, he seems to have a little bit more chips than he did the previous time.
