Brian Altman

Brian Altman and Derek Bowers were heads up to a Td8h3s flop. Bowers checked, Altman bet 110,000 and Bowers check-raised all in. Altman called at risk for 710,000 total.

Altman: AcAh
Bowers: Jd9c

Alman caught aces when he needed them but needed to dodge Bowers’ open-ended straight draw. The Tc turn and 3h river were safe and the WPT Player of the Year had a double.

Brian Altman – 1,640,000 (41 bb)
