Brooks Flops The World
Level 6
: 300/600, 600 ante
No-Limit Holdem
All the chips went into the middle on a flop of A♠K♦8♦ for a pot of 39,000. The under-the-gun player covered Sean Brooks on the button and the small blind.
Small Blind: A♦3♦
Sean Brooks: 8♣8♥
Under The Gun: A♣Q♥
Brooks flopped a set, while the small blind had top pair with the nut flush draw and under the gun had top pair with the best kicker.
Brooks improved when the K♥ on the turn gave them a full house, leaving the two other players needing an ace or a king to chop the pot. The 3♦ river was a brick and Brooks took the pot and the small blind was eliminated.
