Strobel Doubles Through Petakovic
Level 24
: 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
With two players seeing a board reading A♠2♠7♥8♣10♦ and about 6,000,000 in the middle, Milos Petakovic checked from early position and Adrian Strobel, who had left only one T-100,000 chip behind after committing the rest of his stack, checked behind. Petakovic tabled 9♠9♦ for a pair of nines while Strobel showed down A♦K♦ for a top pair which was good at showdown.
Petakovic joked that he would have folded if Strobel moved all in with his last chip as the latter player scooped the pot.
