Balan Spikes River to Double Through Baldwin
Level 17
: 800/1,600, 200 ante
After a "PetyrBaelish" raise from the hijack and an Eric "CircleBall" Baldwin call from the cutoff, Michael "DDSpade" Balan three-bet jammed for 20,521 from the small blind, only Baldwin called.
Eric "CircleBall" Baldwin: ![]()
![]()
Michael "DDSpade" Balan: ![]()
![]()
Balan was behind and nothing changed after the ![]()
![]()
flop that paired each player's queen.
The
turn was no help to Balan but the
river gave him top two-pair to secure his double-up.
