Rook's Two Pair Holds

Level 10 : Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Action picked up on the flop of J?6?7? in a hand between Alexis Owings on the button, the player in the small blind, and Peter Rook in the big blind.

With about 10,000 in the middle, the small blind led out for 7,000, Rook raised to 15,000, and Owings moved all in for 22,700, putting herself at risk. The small blind made the call, as did Rook.

The turn landed the K? and the small blind checked. Rook bet enough to put the small blind all in, who had roughly 30,000 behind. The small blind went into the tank, and eventually made the call once the clock was called on him.

Alexis Owings: Q?Q? All in
Small blind: A?J? All in
Peter Rook: 7?6?

The river brought the 3? and Rook's two pair, sevens and sixes earned him the double knockout and the sizable pot.
