Lucky Double Up For Bedell
Level 8
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
From middle position, Tom-Aksel Bedell moved all in for 10,800 chips. In the cutoff, Maria Ho asked for the count, and she was the only one to call.
Tom-Aksel Bedell: 10♦7♦
Maria Ho: A♠Q♣
Everybody at the table started laughing when the dealer revealed a 7♣10♠9♥ that gave two pairs to Bedell. But there was still a little bit of suspense after the turn brought the A♥. "Oooohhhhh" reacted all the players at the table, waiting for the river. It was a figure, but the J♣, so Bedell doubled up.
