Eldridge Hero-Calls Saout to Double
Level 7
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Action folded to David Eldridge who raised to 38,000 in the small blind. Antoine Saout called in the big blind and they went heads-up to the J?Q?2? flop.
Eldridge continued for 40,000 and Saout called. Eldridge checked the 6? turn, Saout bet 50,000, and Eldridge called.
The river was the Q? and Saout bet 400,000, enough to put Eldridge all in. Eldridge tanked for a few minutes and eventually called for his last 208,000.
Saout showed K?9? for a missed straight draw, while Eldridge had A?K? and took the pot with ace-high to double up.
