Lynskey Looking to Rebuild

Level 15 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Benny Spindler opened for 18,000 from the hijack only to have Alexander Lynskey three-bet all in for 54,000 more from the button. The blinds both folded and Spindler thought long and hard before making the call.

Spindler: {k-Hearts}{j-Spades}
Lynskey: {j-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}

Lynskey was ahead, and the {7-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{q-Spades} flop seemed safe enough. However, the {10-Hearts} turn was dangerous in that it gave Spindler an open-ended straight draw. Fortunately for Lynskey, the {6-Clubs} safely landed on the river to give him the double.
