Awerbuch Gets Lucky, then Gets Unlucky

Level 10 : 800/1,600, 200 ante
Chad Awerbuch
Chad Awerbuch

Chad Awerbuch opened with a raise to 3,500 from middle position and action folded around to the button who three-bet, making it 9,500. Action folded back around to Awerbuch who thought for about 30 seconds, then moved all in for nearly 70,000. His opponent snap-called.

Chad Awerbuch: {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts}
Opponent: {K-Spades}{K-Diamonds}

The flop was decent for Awerbuch when it came {J-Spades}{10-Spades}{6-Hearts} not giving him what he needed immediately, but giving him gutshot and backdoor flush outs to go with his ace. The turn was the {A-Diamonds} though and that would vault him into the lead. The river was the {Q-Diamonds} though, giving both players a straight, so they would chop the pot.

"I think that's fair," someone on the rail said after the hand.

Awerbuch took his half of the pot and now sit with around 70,000 chips.
