Baker Up Over 400,000

Level 19 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

On a {9-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{4-Spades} board, a lady checked to Spencer Baker who bet 15,000 and got called.

The river was the {10-Spades}. The lady bet 20,000 and Baker asked how much his opponent was playing before moved all in. His opponent called with {9-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} for a full house, tens full of nines, but Baker had that beat showing {a-Clubs}{10-Hearts} for quads.

The lady was eliminated, and Baker boosted his chip stack up over 400,000.

"Merry Christmas, Sir," a tablemate said to him as he stacked up his chips.
