Black in the Lead After Eliminating O'Connor
Level 3
: Blinds 100/300, 300 ante
Jacquie O'Connor was down to just 6,500 chips, which she pushed in from early position. The action then folded to Andy Black in the small blind, who made the call to put O'Connor at risk.
Jacquie O'Connor: K♠J♣
Andy Black: 10♥10♦
Black flopped a set on 10♣3♦4♦, but O'Connor turned some outs on the 9♥ turn. Her straight did not come in on the 5♠ river, however, resulting in her elimination.
Black, on the other hand, raked in even more chips as the Irish poker legend and Irish Poker Tour ambassador was sitting on more than twice the starting stack.
