Eastgate - Double Double

[user46298]

Eastgate: down but not out

Peter Eastgate was knocked to just 5,900 after a big threeway coup that rocketed Andrew Feldman up in chips. Feldman got it in against Eastgate and Sandor Demjan with a straight and flush draw (the straight hit on the river).

So, back to the double ups: Eastgate instantly moved all in and Sandor Demjan called on the button. {K-Diamonds}

{K-Diamonds}

{10-Diamonds}

for Eastgate vs. {Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

{8-Diamonds}

for Demjan. The flop of {3-Clubs}

{3-Clubs}

{8-Hearts}

{3-Diamonds}

raised some eyebrows of sympathy, but Eastgate spiked a {K-Hearts}

{K-Hearts}

.

The next hand, his 14,400 was in again, this time racing {K-Diamonds}

{K-Diamonds}

{J-Diamonds}

against his opponent's {6-Spades}

{6-Spades}

{6-Diamonds}

. This time he received two kings, and suddenly it looks like he might not be going home before the end of play today.
