Niste Doubles Through Sydenstricker
Level 24
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Mihai Niste shoved for his last 335,000 from early position and was called by João Sydenstricker in the hijack to put Niste at risk. Everyone else folded and a showdown was held.
Mihai Niste: A♦A♠
João Sydenstricker: A♥Q♠
Niste was in great shape to double and remained well ahead on the K♦9♦3♥ flop. The J♣ turn gave Sydenstricker a small sweat to hit a gutshot, but the 3♠ river bricked out and Niste doubled up.
