Minkin Goes Full Hero For a Double

Level 13 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

The big blind checked a {4-Spades}{10-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{j-Hearts} board over to Kelly Minkin in middle position, who bet 13,000 into a pot of 28,000.

"I'm gonna raise," Chuck Barker said in the hijack, before pushing out a column of 5k chips for a raise to 100,000. The big blind folded, and Minkin, who had 61,000 total, tanked for two minutes, at one point saying, "Jack-ten...king-queen?" She eventually settled on a call.

Kelly Minkin: {7-Clubs}{7-Hearts}
Chuck Barker: {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}

Minkin was ahead with her pair of sevens, but was looking to dodge a host of outs, as Barker had two overs, the nut flush draw, and a Broadway draw. The {8-Diamonds} bricked off, and Barker said, "Nice hand," to Minkin with a slight nod, as Minkin snapped a quick photo of the hand before raking in the double.
