Baker Off to the Races

Seat 2 was all in for 8,800 with {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Spades} against the {A-Diamonds}{K-Hearts} of Mandy Baker. Seat 2 seemed resigned to elimination as he stood and began to put on his jacket.

He may have acted too quickly however as the flop came down {10-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{J-Clubs}, keeping him in the lead. Baker was still looking for an ace or king, but could now make a straight with a queen.

The turn was the {6-Diamonds} and suddenly all Seat 2 needed to do was sweat the river. The dealer burned and slowly revealed the {7-Diamonds}. Seat 2 sat back down to his newly doubled chip stack while Baker dropped to a little less than 5,000.
