Dato Finds an Important Double
Level 16
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Thomas Mayer rasied from early position, Francisco Pena called on the button and Andrea Dato three-bet jammed for 61,500, from the big blind. Mayer folded and Pena called.
Andrea Dato: A♣J♣ 
Francisco Pena: 9♦9♥
Dato needed help and that's exactly what he received on the J♥7♣5♠ flop, giving him top pair. The 3♥ turn and 2♣ river changed nothing and Dato stayed alive.
