Farrell Gets an Early Double with Aces
The under-the-gun player opened the action with a raise before Niall Farrell three-bet to 1,100 from the hijack. The original raiser was the only caller.
On the 5♠4♦3♠ flop, Farrell continued for 2,000 and was met with a check-raise to 6,500. The Scotsman called.
Farrell's opponent fired out 8,000 on the 5♥ turn and went into the tank when Farrell jammed for 25,600. After agonizing over the decision, the under-the-gun player called as the slightly bigger stack.
Niall Farrell: A♦A♣
Under-the-Gun: A♠J♠
Farrell was ahead with aces but needed to dodge a spade, while a deuce would chop up the pot.
The board completed with the 10♦ and Farrell scooped an early double.
Elsewhere in the room, his compatriot Dean Hutchison took his seat. Hutchison finished sixth in last year's Main Event, which netted him a $1,850,000 payday.
