Eng Gets A Triple-Up
Level 18
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Matthew Eng ripped it from early position for 93,000 and was called for less by the cutoff for 91,000. The big blind went into the tank but eventually found the call.
Cutoff: Q♦Q♥
Matthew Eng: K♥8♥
Big Blind: 9♥9♠
The cutoff was ahead but Eng picked up a flush draw on the A♠J♥6♥ flop. The 10♦ didn't change much, but despite the cutoff and big blind holding a heart blocker between them, the 2♥ landed on the river to give Eng a much-needed triple-up and sent the cutoff to the pay line.
