Belshaw Outkicks Mulhern and Doubles Up
Level 4
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Oliver Braddock raised from middle position and was called by Jacob Mulhern, the small blind and Garrie Belshaw in the big blind.
The flop came 6♣7♥9♦ and action checked to Mulhern, who bet 2,000. Belshaw moved all in from 21,600 and action folded back to Mulhern. After some confusion over bets and jokes about angle-shooting, Mulhern made the call.
Mulhern showed J♠9♠ and Belshaw showed A♥9♣. Both players had a pair of nines, but Belshaw had the ace kicker to bring him ahead.
The turn came the 5♥ and the river was the 7♦, which helped neither player, meaning Belshaw held with his pair to win the pot.
