Brennan Doubles Up After Dodging Opponent's Multiple Outs
Level 6
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
PokerNews walked up to a brewing situation at a table, as Craig Brennan was all in and his opponent was contemplating a call on a board of A?K?6?.
Brennan’s opponent asked for a count, and the dealer let him know Brennan had 34,000 behind. The opponent, who had Brennan covered, then made the call and the cards were tabled.
Craig Brennan: 6?6?
Opponent: Q?J?
Brennan had bottom set, but he ran into a monster drawing hand. His opponent was on a straight flush draw, a flush draw and had additional outs for any 10x to give him a straight.
That’s a lot to dodge, but Brennan was safe after 3? hit the turn and A? arrived on the river to give him a full house.
