Higgins Counterfeits Storaakers
Level 28
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Johan Storaakers moved all in from middle position and was called by Simon Higgins on the button. The blinds got out of the way, and the hands were revealed.
Johan Storaakers: 9♠9♦
Simon Higgins: A♠K♦
Storaakers was looking to avoid an ace or king, which he did on the Q♣Q♥Q♦ flop to find a full house. Improbably, the final Q♠ in the deck hit the turn, leaving Higgins ahead before the 10♥ river completed the board and sent Storaakers to the rail.
