Spinks Takes One Out

Level 15 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

Jonathan Spinks raised from the hijack to 5,000 before Rocco Palumbo moved all in from the cutoff for about 31,000. It folded back to Spinks who made the call to put Palumbo at risk.

Spinks: {6-Spades}{6-Diamonds}
Palumbo: {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}

The board ran out a very dry {9-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} and Spinks was shipped the pot. He now has 160,000 in chips.
