Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Gavin Best was already all in and at risk for his remaining 16,500 from the hijack and called and covered by Xiaolong Sheng in the small blind.
Gavin Best: Q♥9♥
Xiaolong Sheng: A♥A♦
Best needed to improve and the Q♠6♣2♣ flop was a good start. He picked up more on the Q♣ turn and secured the double up on the J♠ river, cracking Sheng's pocket Aces.
