Double Double for Wright

Larry Wright
Larry Wright

Larry Wright has doubled two hands in a row to give himself a fighting chance.

In the first hand Brandon Cantu opened to 8,00 and both blinds called. All three drew one and Andrew Lichtenberger led for 30,000 from the small blind. Wright called all-in with {j-}{10-}{8-}{7-}{6-}. Lichtenberger said he had a pair and mucked.

The next hand saw Lichtenberger raise to 10,000 from the button, Wright call from the small blind, and Cantu re-raise to 45,000 from the big blind. Lichtenberger called but Wright moved all-in for 84,000.

Cantu successfully isolated Wright by shoving in behind, and drew one as Wright stood pat.

Cantu opened {9-}{6-}{5-}{4-} and a drew a {7-}. He was drawing dead though as Wright had a seventy-six perfect and scooped.
