Wieczorek Rides an Emotional Rollercoaster to a Double
Level 22
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Harry Cattanach raised enough on the button to put both blinds all in and Zbigniew Wieczorek called for 225,000 in the small blind.
Zbigniew Wieczorek: A♦K♣ 
Harry Cattanach: 9♣8♥
The flop came 6♥6♠3♣, but Cattanach hit the 9♠ on the turn to make two pair and take the lead. The river, though, was the A♣ and Wieczorek improved to a better two pair to double up.
"It's an emotional rollercoaster, poker is," Daniel Myers mused philosophically.
