Vara Finds a Double
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Marian Dicu opened to 3,500 from the hijack and Ruben Vara moved all in for 23,000 from the button. A player in the small blind then reshoved, forcing Dicu out of the way and leaving Vara at risk.
Ruben Vara: 9♦9♥
Opponent: A♠K♣
Vara got the better of the preflop flip on the 3♠2♥2♣ flop and remained ahead on the 6♥ turn and 4♥ river to score a full double up.
