Two Pair for Kade

Level 10 : 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Vanessa Kade
Vanessa Kade

Three players saw a flop of {a-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{5-Clubs} and Vanessa Kade checked before the player in the middle fired out a bet of 6,500. The button made the call and Kade re-raised to a little over 30,000 before the original bettor announced all-in. The player on the button got out of the way and Kade made the call.

Middle Player: {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}
Vanessa Kade: {a-Spades}{5-Spades}

Kade had flopped two pair and the board ran out good for her when it completed with the {9-Clubs} on the turn and the {j-Hearts} on the river. Kade had her opponent covered who had roughly 80,000 in chips.
