Wilkie Gets a Double

Level 13 : 1,200/2,400, 2,400 ante

There was around 59,000 in the pot on a board of {a-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds} and Steve Wilkie had the all in button and a counted-out stack of 27,600 in front of him from the small blind. Action was on Ruth Graham, who was on the button.

Graham went into the tank for close to two minutes, asking to confirm the amount somewhere in that time. Eventually, she put out chips to call.

Wilkie sheepishly announced a weak flush. Graham stayed stoic.

Wilkie tabled {8-Diamonds}{6-Spades}.

Graham looked back at her cards with body language displaying a desire to muck. Knowing all cards must be turned up at showdown, she tabled {a-Hearts}{5-Clubs} for a pair of aces, resulting in Wilkie’s flush being good en route to a full double.
