Vidovic Doubles His Short Stack
Level 20
: 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
There was a shout by the dealer of an all in and a call on Table 2. Josip Vidovic was all in for his remaining 180,000 chips holding ![]()
and needed some help from the board after Demosthenes Kiriopoulos turned over ![]()
.
Depending on how you look at it, help maybe came on the flop of ![]()
![]()
. Even though Kiriopoulos hit top pair, Vidovic gained another out for a straight draw. The
on the turn didn't improve either player's hand, however, the
on the river handed Vidovic a double-up with the nut straight.
