Raskin Drills an Ace to Double
Level 13
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
From the hijack, Russell Rosenblum raised to 8,000 and John Hennigan called from the cutoff. Micah Raskin squeezed it up to 26,000 from the button, prompting Rosenblum to rip it with the covering stack. Hennigan folded before Raskin called for his stack of around 245,000.
Micah Raskin: A♣K♥
Russell Rosenblum: Q♥Q♠
Rosenblum's pocket queens stayed best on the 4♥10♦4♠ flop, but an A♠ on the turn changed that, as Raskin spiked a pair ot take the lead.
The 7♣ on the river changed nothing, and Maskin's climbed to over 500,000.
