Carrillo Doubles With Straight Flush

With 5,600 in the middle, three players saw the turn board of K♦Q♦9♦5♦. Craig Carrillo bet 1,200 which gained a fold from the big blind, but the middle position player raised to 3,500.

Carrillo took a moment before announcing all in for 17,000 and was quickly called by middle position.

Craig Carrillo: J♦10♦
Middle Position: A♦J♥

Carrillo smashed the flop hitting a straight flush and could not have asked for a better turn card to give his opponent the ace-high flush. The inconsequential 2♣ completed the board and Carillo completed an early double up.

Carrillo is in good form after finishing sixth in Event #27: $1,500 8-Game Mix for his biggest-ever recorded cash of $30,315.
