Onan Banks on a Double-Up
Level 15
: Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
A short-stacked Peter Onan got his last 96,000 into the middle against LaDarren Banks in late position.
Peter Onan: J♣9♠9♣7♠
LaDarren Banks: K♥K♠Q♠4♥
Banks was ahead with kings double-suited against the connected nines of Onan. Onan got quite the sweat when the flop peeled, A♦10♣8♥, giving him a wrap to go along with his pair. When the 9♦ rolled off, it put him firmly in the lead with a straight and a set to go with it. When the board paired with the 10♠, Banks was left to do the accounting for what he owed.
