Singer On Fire

A player raised from under-the-gun with David Singer making the call from the small blind along with the player in the big blind.

The flop came {Q-Hearts}{3-Spades}{7-Diamonds} and the blinds checked the action with the preflop aggressor firing out 2,500. Singer made the call and the big blind folded.

The turn brought the {10-Hearts} and both players checked.

The river was the {4-Clubs} and Singer led out with a 7,000 chip bet which was called. Singer flipped over {4-Hearts}{3-Hearts} for a rivered two pair to collect the pot as his opponent tossed his cards into the muck.

A few moments later Singer had a short-stacked opponent all in. Singer held {9-Clubs}{9-Spades} against his opponent's {8-Clubs}{8-Spades}. The board ran out {J-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{2-Spades} and with these two hands Singer has jumped to 46,500 chips and is in great shape to make it through the day's play.
