Onan Banks on a Double-Up
Level 15
: Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
A short-stacked Peter Onan got his last 96,000 into the middle against LaDarren Banks in late position.
Peter Onan: J?9?9?7?
LaDarren Banks: K?K?Q?4?
Banks was ahead with kings double-suited against the connected nines of Onan. Onan got quite the sweat when the flop peeled, A?10?8?, giving him a wrap to go along with his pair. When the 9? rolled off, it put him firmly in the lead with a straight and a set to go with it. When the board paired with the 10?, Banks was left to do the accounting for what he owed.
