Boatman Doubles; Pirsic Triples
Another large pot was brewing on table 153 and Barny Boatman got his stack in against Miha Pirsic on the A?10?7?Q?.
Barny Boatman: K?K?J?4?
Miha Pirsic: A?Q?8?2?
Boatman was ahead with broadway but had some outs to dodge, as Pirsic had two pair and an inferior flush draw.
The river was the 9? and Boatman doubled for 42,200.
One hand later, Boatman was in the big blind and Pirsic was all-in for 1,900 from under the gun, picking up calls from Michal Schuh and Boatman.
Boatman bet the A?10?3? flop for 1,000 to earn a call from Schuh and bet the A? turn again, forcing out Schuh.
"Do you have the ace?" Pirsic asked and Boatman shook his head, exposing the 10?9?9?8?. Pirsic was alive with the J?9?9?7? and spiked the J? river for the triple up.
"This guy got so lucky against me!" Boatman joked with a big grin on the face.
