Tesfalidet Doubles Through Reynolds
Level 18
: 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
Mesgana Tesfalidet limped in and John Reynolds made it 37,000 to go. It was folded back to Tesfalidet who made the call.
The flop came 
and Tesfalidet checked to Reynolds who made a continuation bet. Tesfalidet moved all in for 149,000 total and Reynolds quickly called. Tesfalidet sighed and said "gutshot" as she turned over 
knowing she was likely behind. She was as Reynolds had 
.
The dealer put out the turn — the 
— and Tesfalidet let out a "yes" as she turned a set to move her into the lead.
The river was the 
and a shocked Tesfalidet said "wow, guess you gotta be lucky sometimes." That double up moved her to 395,000 in chips while Reynolds dropped to 180,000.
