Big Slick Does the Trick for Snell

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

After Nicholas Walker opened for 18,000 from the hijack and Jerry Calvaneso called from the cutoff, Ray Snell moved all in for 135,000 more from the button. The blinds folded, as did Walker, and then Calvaneso made a quick call.

Calvaneso: {j-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}
Snell: {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}

"Yes," Snell whispered under his breath when the {7-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{a-Clubs} flop gave him the lead. The {10-Hearts} turn meant he just needed to dodge a jack on the river to double, which is exactly what he did when the {8-Diamonds} blanked.
