Skaggs Check Raises Back into Contention
Level 33
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Three ways to a flop of 3♥9♣8♥, Thomas Skaggs checked and Satar Al-Sadoun placed a bet of 600,000. David Hu made the call and Skaggs raised for the remainder of his chips.
Al-Sadoun tossed his hand in the muck and Hu thought for a bit before sticking in the call.
Thomas Skaggs: Q♥8♠8♦4♣
David Hu: A♥10♦8♣7♠
Skaggs had flopped a set of eights and Hu just had his open-ended straight draw working for him. The door quickly closed on Hu when the turn paired the 9♠, making the river purely an obligatory action.
