Junglen Climbing

Level 4

We caught the action on the turn with a pot that had already grown more than sizable. Adam Junglen had 2,800 chips in front of him on a {j-Hearts}{8-Spades}{k-Spades}{7-Clubs} board and he was facing an all in raise from a player behind him. Eventually he made the call with {j-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{8-Hearts} for a set of Eights and an inside straight draw. In order to win the pot he had to avoid the multiple draws of his opponent's {a-Spades}{q-Hearts}{9-Spades}{7-Diamonds}.

The river was the {9-Diamonds} which not only bricked the opponent but gave Junglen his straight. He now has 31,500 chips.
