Barlow Finds Aces for a Double

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

From early position, Antonio Garcia opened with a raise to 25,000. Jake Haller called from the next seat, Matt Lapossie called on the button, and Joseph Skinner called from the small blind, before Lou Barlow reraised all in from the big blind for 268,000. Garcia called, and everyone else folded.

Barlow showed the {A-Spades}{K-Clubs}, but he was behind the {A-Diamonds}{A-Clubs} for the at-risk Barlow.

The {J-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{2-Clubs} flop kept Barlow in front, but the {Q-Hearts} on the turn gave Garcia a Broadway straight to put him in front. The {3-Clubs} on the river changed it back to that Barlow had the best hand, and that gave him the win to double him up over 600,000. Garcia was clipped back to 430,000 or so.
