Keeline Doubles In Wrong Direction; Chip Counts from Table 3

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Rich Dixon opened to 2,300 in the hijack and received calls from Bobby Opila on the button and Steve Wilkie in the small blind. Ben Keeline was in the big blind and shoved all in for about 24,600. Dixon went all in for a bit more, getting Opila and Wilkie out of the way.

"Double down!" said Keeline as he tabled {7-Diamonds}{3-Spades}.

Dixon showed {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}

The flop came {10-Hearts}{9-Spades}{a-Spades} to give Dixon a pair of aces, leaving Keeline in need of some combination of running cards to stay alive. The turn came {6-Spades} to give Keeline outs to both spades and a gutshot, but the river fell {3-Hearts} to leave him dry, earning Dixon the knockout along the way.
