DeMaci Doubles Into Break

Level 5 : 100/200, 0 ante

About four minutes into break Chris DeMaci was all in with an opponent tanking. Eventually the player who was in the tank folded his {Q-}{q-} face up, leaving DeMaci and one other player going to a showdown.

DeMaci: {J-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}
Player: {A-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}

The flop came down {j-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}. "That flop is like the world's fair!" DeMaci said. "I didn't even look at my cards, I just didn't want to come back from dinner break. The turn was the {J-Hearts} giving DeMaci the lead with trips.

"Give the man an ace," DeMaci said to the dealer.

But it wasn't an ace, it was the {2-Spades} that hit the river, giving DeMaci the win and the pot. DeMaci quickly counted his chips before heading off to dinner break.
