Jeff Sauer

Jeff Sauer open-jammed from early position and action folded around to Austin McCormick in the big blind.

Jeff Sauer: {a-Clubs}{k-Spades}
Austin McCormick: {3-Clubs}{3-Hearts}

McCormick held the made hand but it didn't hold for long as Sauer paired his ace on the {q-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{a-Diamonds} flop.

The turn fell the {9-Spades} and Sauer took a sigh of relief after the {j-Diamonds} fell on the river to give him the double up.
