Baker Scoops

[user67765]

Stud-8

In a big three-way pot David Baker has scooped a huge pot to eliminate Phillip Campbell and take a chunk out of the stack of Marcel Luske.

Campbell: (X-X) / {J-Diamonds} {9-Spades} {J-Hearts} {6-Diamonds} / (X)
Luske: (X-X) / {A-Hearts} {5-Clubs} {K-Diamonds} {3-Spades} / (X)
Baker: (X-X) / {7-Spades} {5-Spades} {9-Clubs} {4-Clubs} / (X)

Baker led the betting with Campbell all in on fifth street. Luske called Baker down in the side pot but Baker revealed ( {6-Spades} {3-Hearts} {3-Clubs} ) in the hole for a seven-high straight, good for the high and the low. Baker is now up to a commanding 150,000 and the tournament chip lead.
