Evans Moving On Up

Level 24 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante

Joshua Evans raised to 52,000 from the button and was called by Harald Olsen from the big blind. The flop came {j-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} and Olsen check-called a bet of 79,000 from Evans. The turn brought the {8-Hearts} and Olsen again check-called a bet from Evans, this time for 148,000. When the {5-Spades} hit on the river, Evans got the remainder of his chips in the pot and showed the {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} for nines full of eights while Olsen mucked his hand.

After the dust had settled, Evans stack rocketed up to 1,350,000 while Olsen was left with 400,000.
