Tardif Sits Down to a Double
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Patrick Tardif had just registered for the tournament and got his entire stack of 28,500 in the middle from the big blind on his first hand. Tomasz Szcerbinski had him at risk on the button.
Patrick Tardif: 10♥10♦
Tomasz Szcerbinski: A♦Q♦
"Fair fight," Tardif said heading to the 2♥J♥9♥ flop, which kept him in the lead.
"That's good," he added as the K♠ fell on the turn. "That's okay."
The river came the 7♦ and Tardif's tens stayed in front to earn him a double up.
"Easy game," a tablemate said.
"I'm not supposed to win these," Tardif replied.
