Keating Back in the Mix
Niveau 19
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 0 ante
As action picked up on the turn with 37,000 in the pot, Sam Soverel was facing a bet of 26,000 from Alex Keating, when Soverel decided to raise all in on a 8♦J♦6♣7♥ board. After doing a quick count of his stack, Keating made the call.
Alex Keating A♦J♦ 
Sam Soverel J♥9♣
Soverel had top pair and an open ended straight draw but would need to improve on the river to knockout Keating. The board was completed with the 10♣ on the river, giving Keating the double up with his top pair, top kicker, and back within striking distance of Soverel, raking in the 279,000 chip pot.
