Boulton Scores on Defense

Level 27 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Axel Bayout raised to 200,000 from the cutoff. Joshua Boulton called in defense of the big blind.

When the flop hit 7♦10♠6♥, both players checked.

The turn brought the Q♠ and a bet of 150,000 from Boulton. Bayout raised to 550,000.

Boulton moved all in with his last 1,735,000 and Bayout quickly called.

Joshua Boulton: 9♥8♣All in
Axel Bayout: Q♦6♦

Boulton, the short stack in the field, flopped the nuts straight and Bayout turned two pair, queens up. The river K♥ was a brick, enabling Boulton to get the crucial double-up.
