Calculated Risk Pays Off

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Phyllis Storz put her 4,900 over the line from late position and Ryan Sackett took a “Calculated risk.” as he put it and made the call with {k-Spades}{j-Diamonds}. Storz was marginally ahead with her {a-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}.

The cards were dealt {4-Spades}{j-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}{3-Clubs}. A sharp intake of breath from the table as the turn fell and Storz made a gracious exit.
