Brown Has Comeback Power in Spades

[user46298]

For the second time this tournament, a Chad Brown-shaped phoenix has risen from the ashes of a dwindling chipstack. He's now back to 65k, most recently propelled upwards by a threeway Omaha pot which ended up costing Englishman Jeff Duvall most heavily.

An early position raiser made it 5k to go, called by Brown (sb) and Duvall (bb). I missed the flop action, but if there was any it wasn't raised - and on the turn (board: {9-Hearts}

) Brown bet out 5k, raised by Duvall. He called and saw the {Q-Spades}

river. Again Brown bet out, and Duvall made the call, but instamucked when the first two cards shown by Brown were the {A-Spades}

for the stone cold nuts. True, the spades were late arrivals, but they couldn't have come too soon for Brown.

Meanwhile Duvall drops to a dangerous 19k.
