Foggin Catches a Miracle Double on the River
Level 16
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Raoul Refos raised to 10,000 in middle position and David Kaufmann called from the hijack before Marc Foggin moved all in for 108,000 in the big blind. Refos called, while Kaufmann got out of the way.
Raoul Refos: 8♠8♣
Marc Foggin: A♦10♣
The flop came Q♦8♦K♣, giving Foggin a straight draw but Refos a set of eights. The A♣ turn wasn't enough for Foggin, but the J♠ river was as he completed his straight to stay alive.
"Don't do that to me, please. Catches a three-outer on the river against a set," tablemate Mario Trattou told him.
