Thomas Brandt raised to 12,000 from the hijack, and when it folded to the big blind Casey Hatmaker, he made the call.
The flop came 9?6?7? and Hatmaker checked to Brandt, who bet out 16,000. Hatmaker then raised all in for 30,000, and Brandt called to put him at risk.
Casey Hatmaker: K?6?
Thomas Brandt: A?J?
Hatmaker was ahead with his pair of sixes, but would have to fade the two over cards, and a diamond as Brandt also had a flush draw. But when the board ran out Q? on the turn, and 8? on the river, the pair of sixes from Hatmaker were still best, and he secured the double up.
