Baker Felts a Foe

Level 20 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Spencer Baker raised to 16,000 from under the gun, the small blind called, and Rex Clinkscales called from the big blind.

The flop came {Q-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{8-Diamonds} and action checked to Spencer. He bet 125,000, the small blind called for about 40,000 to put himself at risk, and Clinkscales folded.

Spencer Baker: {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}
Small blind: {7-Spades}{7-Hearts}

Baker had the best of it and the small blind needed help from the deck to survive. The {9-Hearts} turn and {6-Clubs} river changed nothing and Baker took both the pot and another bounty chip.
