Clements Doubles

Level 3 : 75/150, 0 ante

We caught the action on a {9-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} flop with three way action. The first player checked and the second player bet 1,525. Clements, who was on the button and third to act, quickly raised to 3,300. The first opponent, who had checked, thought about it for a couple of moments before moving all in. The initial bettor folded and Clements wasted no time in making the call for less, 8,675 total.

Clements: {7-Spades}{7-Clubs}
Opponent: {8-Clubs}{6-Spades}

The turn and river bricked out on the straight draw and Clements was able to double up.

Clements still has two rebuy lammers left, along with his 21,000 in playable chips.
