Hamby Hits an Ace

Level 5 : 100/200, 25 ante

After a series of preflop bets and raises, Jared Hamby was all in and at risk for 20,800 holding {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts}. Unfortunately for him, he was crushed by an opponent's {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}.

The {3-Spades}{j-Clubs}{5-Clubs} flop have Hamby two backdoor draws, and the turn was the prettiest card in the deck - the {a-Spades} - giving Hamby a leading pair of aces. The {2-Clubs} bricked off on the river, and the 2013 WSOP bracelet winner doubled to 42,000 chips.
