Racener On the Rise
Level 23
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Steven Spunt opened to 85,000 from early position and was called by John Racener in the cutoff. Jules Dickerson then moved all in for 885,000 on the button. Spunt thought for quite some time before folding while Racener quickly called with the covering stack.
Jules Dickerson: Q♥J♥
John Racener: A♦K♥
Racener held the lead but Dickerson did have two live cards as well as potential straight and flush draws. The J♠Q♦2♥ flop immediately launched Dickerson into the lead but it was short lived as the 10♠ hit the turn to improve Racener to broadway. Dickerson would need to fill up on the river to survive but could not do so as the 7♥ rolled off the deck instead to hand Racener a second knockout in the span of just a few minutes.
