Packer Finds Some Chips

[user66118]

For the sake of setting the scene, Scott Packer earned a small double up two or three hands before this one:

Mikko Pispala completed with the {5-Spades} up, and Stuart Rutter and Scott Packer both called with the {7-Clubs} and {3-Spades} respectively.

Pispala: (X)(X)/ {5-} {K-} {A-} {5-} /(X)
Rutter: (X)(X)/ {7-} {A-} {7-} {10-} /(X)
Packer: (X)(X)/ {3-} {9-} {2-Diamonds} {10-Clubs} /(X)

On fourth street, Rutter was the bettor, and both opponents called. Packer bet fifth street, and again on sixth, the last bet putting him all in for 14,000. When Pispala called that one, Rutter raised, and Pispala called. Both live players checked seventh street.

Rutter showed up {2-} {6-} {2-} to take the side pot with a ten-seven low. Packer was elated to table his {9-} {8-} {6-} , and that ninety-eight scores him a huge triple up to 120,000 after being nearly down to the felt just two hands ago.
