Make That Double Bacon

Level 22 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Melissa Gillett raised to 55,000 from the hijack, and Adam Bacon moved all in for 184,000 from the small blind. Gillett thought for a moment and eventually called.

Bacon tabled {k-Clubs}{j-Hearts}, at risk against the chip leader who held {a-Spades}{8-Hearts}.

The flop came {q-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} and Bacon still needed either a king or a jack to double up or he was out the door. The turn was the {8-Clubs} and Gillett paired her eight, but it changed nothing. The river, however, was the {j-Diamonds} and Bacon survived to see another hand.
