Baker Busts Two to Crack 200K

Jan-Peter Jachtmann raised to 3,600 from early position and was quickly three-bet to 16,000 by Dani stern on the button. David "ODB" Baker made the call from the small blind, and Jachtmann pushed back by moving all in for 14,200 more. This reopened the action so that Stern could get all in for 47,000 total. Baker, who had both players covered, made the call.

Baker: {K-Spades} {J-Clubs} {10-Diamonds} {7-Clubs}
Stern: {A-Clubs} {Q-Hearts} {J-Spades} {10-Clubs}
Jachtmann: {9-Hearts} {9-Clubs} {6-Hearts} {6-Clubs}

It was anyone's pot headed to the flop, which fell {4-Clubs} {2-Clubs} {5-} . The flop wasn't much help to anyone, except putting out a flush draw for all three players. The {7-} turn gave Baker a pair of sevens, but both he and Stern were behind the nines of Jachtmann.

Needless to say, the river was going to have a lot of implications. The dealer burned and put out {10-} , giving Baker two pair and the win. He eliminated both Stern and Jachtmann to chip up to just over 200,000.
