Kostelac Gets the Double
Level 18
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Action folded all the way to John Kostelac in the small blind who thought for a moment and then moved all in for 183,000. The current chip leader Azamat Isakov was in the big blind and asked for a count but eventually called.
The cards hit their backs.
John Kostelac: A♦K♥
Azamat Isakov: A♥Q♦
The full board ran out 10♥K♣5♥5♦Q♠ and Kostelac would earn the pure double at a pivotal time as the bubble approaches.
