All-In Allen

Justin Allen opened the pot with a raise to 20,000, and Dwyte Pilgrim made the call from the small blind. Heads up, the flop came {8-Clubs} {5-Spades} {4-Diamonds}. Pilgrim checked, and Allen moved all in for his last 20,000. Pligrim instantly called.

Showdown
Allen: {A-Clubs} {J-Spades}
Pilgrim: {10-Spades} {10-Clubs}

Allen was behind but still had two overcards to catch. To his delight, the {A-Spades} spiked the turn, vaulting him into the lead. Just to pile it on, the river came the {A-Diamonds} to further improve his hand to aces up. With that, Justin Allen has notched a much-needed double up, sitting now with just under 90,000.
