Pugh-Jones Doubles and Some

Level 9 : Blinds 2,000/3,000, 3,000 ante
Gruffudd Pugh-Jones
Gruffudd Pugh-Jones

Gruffudd Pugh-Jones raised to 11,000 in early position, and Jason Mercier called one seat to his left. Adam Hendrix then three-bet to 49,00 from the cutoff, which both Pugh-Jones and Mercier called.

When the dealer spread the 654 flop, Pugh-Jones moved all in for 72,000. Mercier folded, but Hendrix called.

Gruffudd Pugh-Jones: 6644 All in
Adam Hendrix: AAJ5

Pugh-Jones had flopped top set, and Hendrix had an overpair and a flush draw.

The 7 turn and K river completed the board, offering no help to Hendrix, and Pugh-Jones pulled in the pot.
