Good Timing for Martin

Level 26 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

The action folded to Maurice Hawkins on the button who made a large raise to 150,000. Dinh Ba three-bet shoved all in for 1,190,000 in the small blind and Darren Martin put the last of his 245,000 in the middle from the big blind. Hawkins folded and the remaining two hands were face up.

Darren Martin: {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}
Dinh Ba: {8-Clubs}{6-Spades}

"I was just trying to get you to fold," Ba said to Hawkins, but found himself in a predicament once Martin got involved. The flop came {j-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} to give Ba an open-ended straight draw but the {k-Diamonds} and {j-Clubs} runout ensured Martin of a double up.
