Broom Goes the Dynamite

James Broom

Andrew Scott's day just got quite a bit tougher. With 1,300 in the pot, he and James Broom took a highly coordinated flop of {5-Spades} {7-Diamonds} {9-Spades}. Broom was first to act, checking it over to Scott. Scott quickly bet 1,000. Broom check-raised him to 3,000. It was almost possible to see the gears churning in Scott's head as he debated his action. Ultimately he opted to raise all in, a raise that Broom snap-called with middle set, {7-Spades} {7-Hearts}. Scott merely had top pair, {10-Spades} {9-Diamonds}, and was drawing dead by the {2-Diamonds} turn. The {6-Hearts} completed the board, allowing Broom to scoop a pot worth roughly 16,000.

Scott has just 2,000 left in his stack.
