Three Saves Wood

Level 14 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Nicholas Wood opened the action preflop with a raise to 12,000 from early position before Sherwin Basti elected to shove for 52,000 two seats over. Players folded to Thomas Grey, who called the all-in bet. Wood gave it some thought before he folded to send Basti and Grey to a showdown.

Nicholas Wood: A3All in
Thomas Grey: AK

Wood was in trouble against the better ace of Grey. The flop, however, gave Wood plenty of equity as it came J59. The 3 turn suddenly put Wood in the lead, and with the flush draw trimmed Grey's hand to only two outs heading to the river. The 4 river completed the board and gave Wood the double up against Grey.
