Baker Chipping Up

We missed the preflop action but David "ODB" Baker and the big blind were the only two players to see the flop of {k-Spades}{10-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}. They both checked the flop and again after the {5-Spades} came on the turn and once more after the {k-Hearts} came on the river. "Ace-queen" Baker said as he flipped over his {a-Spades}{q-Hearts}. The big blind mucked his hand and Baker's ace-high took down a small pot.

Baker is doing well so far with 9,800 in his stack and both his rebuy chips still intact.
