Abernathy Makes the Right Call to Double Up
Level 16
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
In a heads-up pops with more than 45,000 already in the middle, the board showed Q♥6♦8♥2♦ when Laura Westfall checked in the big blind to Samantha Abernathy under the gun who bet 25,000. Westfall tanked and raised it to 55,000, which Abernathy called.
The 3♣ completed the board and Westfall looked at Abernathy's remaining stack and tossed a pile of 5,000-chip in front of her, putting Abernathy at risk. The latter took a minuet and eventually called for her last 75,000.
Westfall tabled A♥10♣ for ace-high and the pot was shipped to Abernathy who showed A♣Q♣ for top pair.
