Stewart Doubles Up
Level 32
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Action folded around the table to Caleb Bloomer on the button, and Bloomer limped in.
Chad Stewart, who was in the small blind, eyed Bloomer for a few moments, and then moved all in for his remaining 2,450,000.
The big blind folded and action returned to Bloomer, who called to put Stewart at risk.
Chad Stewart: A♦8♠
Caleb Bloomer: K♠Q♣
The dealer fanned A♣A♠2♦ on the board, and Bloomer acknowledged Stewart’s flopped trip aces by patting the table.
The 10♣ appeared on the turn, opening a gutshot straight possibility for Bloomer. The jack, however, didn’t appear on the river. Instead, 2♣ showed up to give Stewart aces full and the full double up.
