Utley Doubles Through Espenlaub

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Drake Espenlaub limped in from middle position, and John Utley jammed it in for 115,000 in the big blind.

"I'll gamble," Espenlaub said, tossing {4-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} into the middle.

It was indeed a race, as Utley had {q-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}.

The {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} flop brought more danger for Espenlaub, since a {6-} would kill his pair. The {j-Diamonds} gave Utley even more outs with two draws, and he hit the {3-Diamonds} on the river for a flush.
