Awerbuch Gets Lucky, then Gets Unlucky
Level 10
: 800/1,600, 200 ante
Chad Awerbuch opened with a raise to 3,500 from middle position and action folded around to the button who three-bet, making it 9,500. Action folded back around to Awerbuch who thought for about 30 seconds, then moved all in for nearly 70,000. His opponent snap-called.

The flop was decent for Awerbuch when it came 
not giving him what he needed immediately, but giving him gutshot and backdoor flush outs to go with his ace. The turn was the 
though and that would vault him into the lead. The river was the 
though, giving both players a straight, so they would chop the pot.
"I think that's fair," someone on the rail said after the hand.
Awerbuch took his half of the pot and now sit with around 70,000 chips.
