Snaaaaaap!

Greg Raymer made it 90,000 to go from UTG and Brian Townsend shoved for 250,000 from the small blind. Raymer snap-called, turning up {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{A-Diamonds}

to Townsend's {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{Q-Spades}

.

The flop, however, was a monster for Townsend, coming down {K-Spades}

{K-Spades}

{10-Hearts}

{9-Spades}

to give him the nut flush draw and a gutshot straight draw. He got there on the turn, the {J-Spades}

{J-Spades}

filling to make his flush. The river was the {3-Diamonds}

{3-Diamonds}

and Townsend doubled up to 630,000. Raymer is still quite healthy at 2,560,000.
