Smith Scores a Full Double Up
John Smith limped in on the button and Chris Brewer raised to 15,000 out of the big blind. Smith nearly folded but then opted to see a flop which came J♠J♥5♠. Brewer led out with a bet of 10,000 and Smith just called to see the 7♣ on the turn.
Brewer fired out another bet of 40,000 on the turn and Smith called. The river was the 4♦ and Brewer splashed in a bet of 130,000. Smith shoved all in for 176,600 which got Brewer out of his seat as he showed his cards J♣8♣.
"You just have eight-six of spades or some funny jack that made a full house. How much more is it? I don't think I can fold," Brewer rambled on as the stack was counted. Brewer got the final count and made the call only to see Smith turn over J♦7♦ for a full house to double into the lead.
