Sidhu Hits a Miracle to Double
Level 21
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Hasmukh Khodiyara raised to 25,000 in the cutoff, then snap-called when Kuljinder Sidhu moved all in for 230,000 in the big blind.
Kuljinder Sidhu: 2♠2♣
Hasmukh Khodiyara: K♠K♣
Sidhu was crushed by Khodiyara's kings and was on the brink of elimination as the board came A♠6♣5♣J♥, but he caught the 2♥ on the river to make a set and earn the miraculous double up.
A few hands earlier at this table, Khodiyara had doubled up off Daniel Samson when he picked up aces against Samson's queens.
