Stewart Comes From Behind

Casey Stewart just sat down at a new table, and on the first hand he was dealt, he knocked out an opponent. Stewart was in the big blind, and the action was on him after a raise to 1,600 and two callers. Stewart cut out a three bet of 4,725, and tossed it into the middle.

Only the original raiser came along for the ride, and the flop came {5-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{3-Clubs}. Stewart thought for about 15 seconds before moving all in, and his opponent, who was covered, quickly made the call.

Stewart: {a-Hearts}{5-Spades}
Opponent: {8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}

Stewart grimaced when he was called, and he saw that he would need a five or non club ace to win the pot. Well the {a-Diamonds} hit the turn, giving Stewart the unlikely lead. He would still need to dodge a club or eight on the river, and he did just that, as the dealer put out the {2-Hearts}.

After that hand, Stewart shot back up to 48,000.
