Awerbuch Scoops a Big One

Level 5 : 150/300, 25 ante

Action was three-way on the river with right around 30,000 in the pot. The board was {K-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}{A-Spades}{6-Diamonds} and first to act, Chad Awerbuch put out a bet of 13,500. One of his opponents in middle position then moved all in over the top with a stack of nearly 80,000. The last player, on the button, dropped into the tank and thought for a couple of minutes before he finally decided to fold. Awerbuch called off his remaining chips, roughly 3,000, very quickly.

The player in middle position showed down {A-Diamonds}{K-Hearts} for two pair, but Awerbuch was holding {Q-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} for a flush. With that he took down the big pot to more than double up.
