Phan Flops a Set to Get Massive Double Up
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
A player from under the gun raised, which was called by Anderson Roberts on the button. Then Donnie Phan in the small blind three-bet all in for his stack of 93,500. The big blind and the under the gun player folded, but Roberts elected to call and put Phan at risk.
Donnie Phan: J♠J♥ 
Anderson Roberts: K♥Q♣
Phan was in front with his pocket jacks but would need to fade the two overs of Roberts. The J♣6♠4♦ flop gave Phan a commanding lead as he flopped top set, but the A♦ on the turn gave Roberts outs in the form of a Broadway straight draw. However, the 5♣ on the river was safe for Phan, giving him a massive double up, leaving Roberts on fumes.
