A Second Spear Through Iles

Not too long ago Jordan Spear was able to score a key double up through Matt Isles. Spear recently delivered the killing blow.

Three players saw a flop of {Q-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}{8-Hearts} and Iles checked. Marcio Cid checked to Jordan Spear and Spear shot out 60,000. Iles replied by instantly moving all in. Cid mucked his hand and Spear thought for about fifteen seconds before calling with {A-Clubs}{Q-Clubs} and was ahead of Iles' {Q-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}.

The board finished with the {2-Diamonds} and the {J-Clubs} and Iles was forced to ship most of his stack to Spear. Iles was left with merely 15,000 in chips and was eliminated the next hand.
