Racener's Revenge

John Racener
John Racener

John Racener and Steven Simpson, who did some battling earlier, were heads up with the board reading {10-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{7-Spades}. Simpson check-called a 2,500-chip bet, and the turn was the {k-Spades}.

Simpson checked, Racener fired 4,400, and Simpson called.

The {a-Hearts} completed the board, and Simpson checked again. Racener fired a third bullet worth 7,000, and Simpson quickly called. Racener tabled {a-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} for a pair of aces, and Simpson showed {k-Clubs}{j-Clubs} for a pair of kings.

Racener's back to 40,000 chips.
