Phelps Fades Overs to Double Up
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Following a late position raise to 2,000, Curtis Phelps went all in for 14,600. After a lengthy decision, his opponent found a call, flipping over A?9? versus Phelps' 8?8?.
The flop looked to go Phelps' way as 6?J?5? led to him being the favorite. The turn of 7? added a straight draw for both players, with Phelps being open ended. A J? on the river changed nothing and Phelps had faded the possible bust-out and gained 30,400 chips.
