Hand #44: John Conroy

Rasmus Nielsen had the button. It folded to Joe Pelton in the small blind who completed, and John Conroy checked in the big blind.

The flop came {9-Spades}{J-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}. Pelton bet 70,000, and Conroy pushed all in for 420,000. Pelton called.

Pelton {A-Spades}{5-Spades}
Conroy {J-Clubs}{10-Clubs}

The turn was the {Q-Diamonds}. The river was the {8-Spades}, giving Conroy the straight and he doubles up over 800,000.
