Davison Does Damage

Josh Noy

Level 14 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Alex Le opened to 16,000 from the hijack and Greg Davison called in the cutoff. Bernie Stang then moved his short stack all in on the button, followed by Ray Badaoui in the big blind.

Le let his hand go before Davison made the call, leaving two players at risk.

Bernie Stang: K?J? All in
Greg Davison: K?2? All in
Ray Badaoui: J?J?

Badaoui was in great position to score the double knockout, but the 10?5?8? flop brought Davison a flush draw. The dealer then revealed the 8? turn, completing Davison's flush. The K? river was no help, as Davison scored the triple-up while knocking out Stang.

A short time later, both Le and Badaoui hit the rail as the field closed in on the money bubble.
