Alwin on a Heater
Nível 17
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
After doubling-up twice right before dinner break, Eric Alwin was right back in the action when he called an under-the-gun raise of 18,000 and five players went to the flop.
The dealer spread a flop of 10♠8♠4♥, and the action checked to Alwin who was in the hijack, and he announced all-in for a little over 300,000. Only the small blind made the call, putting his tournament life on the line for 132,000.
Small Blind: K♠Q♠
Eric Alwin: 10♦10♥
Alwin flopped a set, and his opponent flopped a flush draw. The Q♣ turn and J♥ river, meant Alwin's set was still good as he went from zero to hero in a matter of a few hands.
