Robinson Catches Spades

Nelson Robinson opened with a raise preflop and was three-bet by Niall Charlton. Robinson moved all in and was quickly called by Charlton.

Charlton: {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs}
Robinson: {K-Diamonds}{J-Spades}

The flop brought reassuring news for Charlton, as he was able to keep his lead when it fell {A-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{8-Spades}. The {K-Spades} turned and gave Charlton two pair, but also provided spade outs for Robinson. The river brought heartbreak for Charlton, as the {7-Spades} peeled off, giving Robinson the winning flush and a double up that brought him to 2,400,000.
