Gardner and Chen Score Doubles in Classic Flips
Level 18
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Grant Gardner three-bet jammed a short stack with the A♣K♦ and was looked up by Ilia Miakishev with the Q♦Q♠. The most classic of flips brought a board of 8♥8♣8♠A♦10♦ and Gardner doubled.
Pete Chen had the very same scenario over on table one for 110,000 with A♦K♦ versus Q♠Q♦.
The J♠J♥8♠ flop and 9♥ turn were blanks but Chen got there with the A♥ river to start his little happy dance once more. Wei Xu never recovered from that large blow and Andy Li claimed the remainder of his short stack with ace-high shortly after.
