Medic Cancels Life Support

[user38971]

Nenad Medic, who has been on life support for awhile now, has just managed to jump-start his day and is now up to 23,000.

Preflop, from the button, Medic made it 600 to go and was called by the big blind. The flop came {8-Spades} {3-Spades} {2-Hearts} and the big blind check-raised to 2,500. Medic raised to 6,000 and the big blind moved all in, having Medic covered.

Medic called and showed 8-3 for two pair. He was up against his opponent's pocket nines. The two pair held for Medic, which was good, as he was down to his last 7,000 earlier.
