Two Pair Good for Loomis

Level 9 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

David Strickland raised to 3,000 in middle position and received three callers behind to see the A610 flop.

It checked to Strickland, who bet 7,500, and was called by Andrew Loomis in the cutoff and Andrew Pham in the big blind.

The trio went to the 9 turn where action slowed down with checks all around. On the 8 river, Strickland bet 7,500 and Loomis thought for a moment before making the call. Pham got out of the way.

Loomis tabled AJ108 for two pair, aces and tens, besting the AK32 of Strickland.
