Bayer Finds an Early Double-Up
Level 17
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Kiryl Liudvikevich opened for 13,000 chips from under the gun and Dorian Melchers called from the small blind. Mathias Bayer then jammed all in for 56,000, and Liudvikevich got out of the way before Melchers made the call.
Mathias Bayer: A♣K♥
Dorian Melchers 3♣3♦
Bayer flopped a king on J♦4♦K♦, and held on the subsequent 9♥5♦ runout, seeing him double up in the process.
