Blankenship Gets a Lucky Double

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
David Blankenship
David Blankenship

David Blankenship opened the action with a raise to 3,000 in early position and action folded around to Stuart Brown, who was on the button and put in a three-bet large enough to put everybody all in that still had cards. Both players in the blinds folded and Blankenship took his remaining chips and splashed them down onto the felt in front of him.

David Blankenship: {a-Spades}{q-Diamonds}
Stuart Brown: {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}

"I f*****g knew you had ace-king," said Blankenship, standing up and fully aware that the odds were against him. The flop was {10-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} to give him nine more outs at a flush and the turn {k-Diamonds} quickly filled up his draw.

"Sit back down!" said somebody at the table as the river {4-Hearts} completed the runout to give Blankenship the double.
