David Salituro

Level 17 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

With around 200,000 in the pot on a flop of 7♥2♥8♣, William Henderson bet 100,000 from the small blind and David Docherty moved all in from the cutoff. "For f**k sake," Henderson said as he quickly called for 424,000.

William Henderson: A♦A♣ All in
David Docherty: A♥10♥

Henderson was ahead with his aces, while Docherty was on the nut flush draw. "How you feeling?" Docherty asked him.

"Not great," Henderson replied.

"Good," Docherty added, but the 9♠ turn and 2♠ river kept Henderson in the lead to earn him the double up, leaving Docherty nursing an extreme short stack.
