Assadourian Doubles

[user22113]

Vanessa Rousso raised to 1,100 from the button and was met with a re-raise from Eric Assadourian out of the small blind to 3,000. Rousso thought for some time before moving all-in putting Assadourian to a decision for his tournament life.

Assadourian sat in the tank for over two minutes before making the call tabling {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{10-Spades}

to be in a race against Rousso's {8-Clubs}

{8-Clubs}

{8-Spades}

.

The flop of {2-Clubs}

{2-Clubs}

{2-Diamonds}

{5-Clubs}

kept Rousso in the lead but when the {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

landed on the turn Assadourian soared ahead. The {6-Diamonds}

{6-Diamonds}

fell on the river giving the pot to Assadourian as he doubled to 21,000 and sending Rousso back down to 19,500.
