Ricky Two Times

Under the gun, Ricky Fohrenbach open-raised to 1,950, and he was called by Antonio Buonanno on the button. The blinds folded out of the way, and it was heads up to the flop.

The dealer spread out {4-Clubs} {9-Spades} {7-Clubs}, and Fohrenbach continued out with a small bet of 2,500. Buonanno raised to 6,000, and Fohrenbach moved all in for 16,225. After asking for a full count, Buonanno made the call to put his opponent at risk.

Showdown
Fohrenbach: {J-Clubs} {J-Hearts}
Buonanno: {A-Hearts} {9-Clubs}

Fohrenbach's overpair was in the lead, and it would stay there as the turn and river came safe-safe; {K-Clubs} and {2-Hearts} respectively. With his two jacks holding up, Ricky has pulled in a double up to about 38,000.
