Abernathy Makes the Right Call to Double Up
Level 16
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
In a heads-up pops with more than 45,000 already in the middle, the board showed Q?6?8?2? when Laura Westfall checked in the big blind to Samantha Abernathy under the gun who bet 25,000. Westfall tanked and raised it to 55,000, which Abernathy called.
The 3? completed the board and Westfall looked at Abernathy's remaining stack and tossed a pile of 5,000-chip in front of her, putting Abernathy at risk. The latter took a minuet and eventually called for her last 75,000.
Westfall tabled A?10? for ace-high and the pot was shipped to Abernathy who showed A?Q? for top pair.
