Gavin Gets There

Gavin Smith doubles.
Gavin Smith doubles.

Gavin Smith open-jammed for his last 326,000 from the hijack seat, and Bobby Poe re-jammed for 552,000 on the button. The blinds released, and the hands were opened.

Smith: {q-Hearts}{j-Hearts}
Poe: {a-Hearts}{10-Hearts}

The {6-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{2-Spades} flop changed nothing, but the {q-Clubs} ripped off on the turn, giving Smith a leading pair of queens. The {7-Spades} bricked on the river, and Smith doubled to around 660,000 chips.

Poe was left with just 226,000.
