Machshon Doubles Through Gabel

Laura Fryer

Level 16 : Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Players were already heads-up and all in, with Vincent Gabel in a middle position covering Itamar Machshon in the hijack.

Itamar Machshon: A♠8♠ All in
Vincent Gabel: 9♥9♣

Gabel was ahead pre-flop but the Q♦3♠A♣ flop gave Machshon top pair.

The 2♦ turn and J♥ river didn't change anything and Machshon secured the double up.
