Punjabi Flips Her Way to a Double
Level 20
: Blinds 15,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Nichole Roberts shoved first to act and two spots behind her, Yesha Punjabi also went all in for 250,000. Everyone else got out of the way and hands were revealed.
Yesha Punjabi: 9♠9♣
Nichole Roberts: A♦J♦
It was a nearly even matchup, but the 9♥J♣8♥ flop brought a set for Punjabi right in the window to give her a commanding lead in the hand.
The 7♣ turn brought chop opportunities, prompting Roberts to say, "Ten?"
However, the Q♣ river kept Punjabi ahead with her set and she became the latest person to double.
