The Defending Champ Takes a Hit, Jindal Gets Stronger
Vineet Jindal's been having a killer level as he just doubled up again. Jindal raised under the gun to 12,000 and got three-bet by Benn Skender who was in the cutoff. Leo Boxell was on the button the defending APPT Melbourne champion four-bet to 100,000.
Both blinds folded, and Jindal moved all in for 116,500. All of this was getting too rich for Skender's pocket, and he quickly released his hand. Later he claimed to have folded pocket nines.

The board ran out 
, and Jindal doubled up. Boxell still has a good stack, and his chances of going back-to-back are still alive.
