Baker Hits Straight To Survive
Niveau 30
: Limits 100,000/200,000, 0 ante
David “ODB” Baker found himself all in as the short stack on the big blind.
Action folded to Raul Celaya in late position and he called with J♠7♠. The button folded, and John Armbrust raised after looking down at A♠K♦. With Baker already all in, the action returned to Celaya, who called.
The flop brought 10♣K♥6♥. Armbrust bet, forcing Celaya out of the hand
Baker tabled Q♣J♥ for an open-ended straight draw against Armbrust’s top pair. The turn provided A♠, giving Baker the straight and Armbrust top two pair.
Baker needed to dodge Armbrust pairing either of his cards on the river, and he survived when 2♠ hit the board.
