Stout Lucks Out for a Double
Level 4
: 300/500, 500 ante
Melvin Acosta had 1,500 in front of him from the cutoff, and was contemplating calling the three-bet shove from Matt Stout in the small blind. Acosta counted out the 10,600 more needed to make the call, then threw it in the pot.
Matt Stout: 
Melvin Acosta: 
Acosta would get no love when the 
flop delivered Stout a pair of kings, and Stout improved to trips on the 
turn, leaving Acosta dead to the 
river.
