Hutchinson Doubles on Bubble
Level 19
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
With the bubble closing in and four players left to being in the money, the action folded to Christian Roberts on the button who raised to 99,000. Dean Hutchison called in the small blind position for his remaining 74,000.
Dean Hutchison: 8♠8♥
Christian Roberts: 10♦9♥
"No sets" said Roberts as the board flopped 7♣K♣6♦ in jest as any eight giving Hutchison a set would give Roberts the nut straight.
The turn was the 5♥ with Hutchison in the lead going to the river.
Unfortunately for Roberts a river card of J♦ sent a pile of chips to Hutchison.
