Bullets For Wright

Larry Wright opened with a raise to 2,100 and was called by the player in the hijack. The small blind three-bet all in for 10,400 and Wright flat called. The hijack called as well, prompting the dealer to tap the table and produce a flop.

The three players saw {6-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{9-Hearts} fall and Wright took charge by betting out 7,000. After tanking, his opponent in the hijack got out of the way and Wright triumphantly showed {A-Clubs}{A-Spades} which was way ahead of the all in player's {A-Hearts}{J-Hearts}.

Wright opponent picked up flush outs when the {Q-Hearts} turned, but ultimately was eliminated when the {9-Diamonds} completed the board on the river. From that win, Wright is now sitting on a stack of about 62,000.
