Sutcliffe Survives

An early position player raised to 900, Nigel Sutcliffe called from the button and the big blind also made the call.

They took a flop of {5-Clubs}{6-Spades}{J-Hearts} and the early position player opened with a bet of 2,200. Sutcliffe then moved all in for 5,475 total. The BB player stepped aside and the EP player asked "How much more is it?" Sutcliffe shrugged saying "Meh, not much..."

The EP made the call and tabled {8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} but trailed the {Q-Hearts}{J-Diamonds} of Sutcliffe. The turn was the {2-Diamonds} and river the {6-Diamonds} and Sutcliffe high-fives a friend on the rail as he survives to move to 12,000 chips.
