McMahon and Lewis Double Each Other Up

Level 22 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

On the first hand, Austin Lewis was at risk for the 505,000 he had in front of him in the small blind as Gareth McMahon had him covered in the cutoff.

Austin Lewis: {a-Spades}{10-Diamonds}
Gareth McMahon: {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}

The board ran out {8-Spades}{10-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{6-Spades}{4-Spades} for Lewis to flop the pair of tens and improve to two pair to double up.

Lewis was left with 105,000 which he pushed over the line a few hands later from the middle position. Lewis three-bet to 180,000 from the cutoff for the rest of the table to get out of their way.

Gareth McMahon: {7-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}
Austin Lewis: {k-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}

The board ran out {a-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{8-Hearts} for Lewis to stay ahead but for McMahon to pick up the open-ended straight draw.

The turn was the {6-Clubs} for McMahon to pair up with and the {6-Spades} gave him trips to stay alive and double up.
