Cunningham Connects on the River
Level 5
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Jarod Cunningham was all in from the small blind with the board showing 2?7?9? and three other players involved in the action. Chad Awerbuch fired 3,800 from the big blind, as did Luke Thomas and Bernie Stang.
The 3? turn saw Awerbuch fired 7,900, producing a fold from Thomas and a call from Stang. Awerbuch led out again for 8,200 after the J? river, with Stang taking a moment before making the fold.
Awerbuch showed K?9? for a flopped pair of nines to earn the side pot, while Cunningham hit top pair on the river with J?2? to stay alive.
