Beth Shak Doubles Up

After some preflop raising, Beth Shak moved her stack into the middle from early position on a flop of {J-Spades}{7-Hearts}{9-Spades}. She was quickly called by her opponent who tabled {K-Spades}{K-Diamonds} and Shak would need some help with her {A-Spades}{10-Diamonds}.

Help is exactly what was delivered with the {8-Hearts} on the turn completing her gutshot straight draw. The {3-Diamonds} fell on the river and Shak is left stacking up 27,000 worth of chips.
