Andress hits Broadway
Level 18
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Alexander Lynskey raised to 24,000 from the hijack, and faced an all-in raise to 61,000 from the cutoff by John Andress. Lynskey called, and the two went to a showdown.
John Andress: A♣10♥
Alexander Lynskey: 9♦9♣
Andress hit his ace on the A♠J♣8♦ flop. The Q♠ turn was safe for Andress, and the K♥ river upgraded him to a straight to score the double and avert elimination.
