Baker's Rising

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

David "Bakes" Baker opened the pot with a raise from late-position, and the player on the button got his last 54,000 chips into the middle with {6-Clubs} {6-Hearts}. That was not at all a good thing when Bakes showed up {J-Diamonds} {J-Spades}, and the board ran a clean {Q-Clubs} {A-Hearts} {7-Spades} {9-Clubs} {Q-Hearts}.

Baker sends another one packing, increasing to about 210,000 with that knockout.
