A Tough Decision Doubles Le, Leaving Scott In Trouble

[user67765]

Nam Le

Andrew Scott raised to 18,000 from the button and Nam Le instantly moved all in from the small blind for 63,000 in total. Quinn Do folded his big blind and Scott went into the tank once more.

"Now you've put me to a tough decision!" sighed Scott.

After a few minutes of thought, he announced a call.

Scott: {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{Q-Diamonds}

Le:

{7-Hearts}

{7-Spades}

The board ran out {4-Spades}

{4-Spades}

{J-Clubs}

{5-Clubs}

{J-Hearts}

{10-Clubs}

and Le's pair holds up to find a much needed double up to about 130,000 to leave Scott on the short stack with only about 40,000 chips.
