Matheny Doubles Up

Level 5 : 300/500, 500 ante

Three players saw a flop of {j-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}. The small blind checked to Michael Matheny in the big blind who bet 1,500 and was called by a player in early position.

The small blind raised to 5,000 which prompted Matheny to move all in for 19,500. The early position player folded and the small blind made the call.

Michael Matheny: {j-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{3-Hearts}
Small Blind: {7-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}

A cooler for the small blind as Matheny hit a better set on the flop, but the small blind had draws to a flush and a straight. The {9-Clubs} on the turn was no help for the small blind and the {a-Hearts} river confirmed the double up for Matheny.
