Strahl Doubles; Leaves Ding With Crumbs
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Ryan Mandara opened to 3,000 from early postion and was called by Biao Ding in the hijack. Carl Strahl then shoved for his last 37,500 from the cutoff and action folded back around to Ding, who called to put Strahl at risk.
Carl Strahl: 9♥9♦
Biao Ding: A♥J♦
It was a coinflip, but the Q♥K♥3♠8♦2♦ runout kept Strahl's pocket nines best and he doubled through Ding, who was left with just 2,500 following the hand.
