Sweeney Finds a Double
Level 9
: Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
Eoghan MacGabhann opened for 3,200 chips from middle position, which Dylan Sweeney three-bet to 8,500 from the cutoff. The action then folded back to MacGabhann, who put in the call.
The flop fell J♠5♥3♥ and MacGabhann check-called a 5,000 bet from his opponent before the 9♦ turn appeared.
MacGabhann checked again, after which Sweeney jammed all in for 29,000 chips. MacGabhann let out a sigh but ultimately made the call to put Sweeney at risk.
Dylan Sweeney: Q♥J♣
Eoghan MacGabhann: 10♠9♠
Sweeney's top pair was ahead, and when MacGabhann failed to improve on the 4♠ river, Sweeney raked in a double-up to get an above-average stack.
