Results Better than Process for Austin

Level 26 : 20,000/40,000, 4,000 ante

Ryan Austin, in the big blind, bet 145,000 into his lone opponent after the {2-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{6-Spades} flop. Joe Gergus made the call, and the two took in a turn of {j-Hearts}. Austin fired again, this time 220,000, and Gergus thought for a bit before deciding to make a stand, literally, as he stood up and shoved all in for 240,000 more.

"I hate how I played this hand," Austin said as he considered whether to call. Finally, he placed the chips in the middle.

Gergus: {q-Spades}{9-Spades}
Austin: {k-Hearts}{9-Hearts}

Austin was ahead, but Gergus had considerable outs. The river was a {4-Diamonds} though, no help to Gergus, and Austin dragged a large pot despite his self-described regretful play.
