Saft Cracks Queens to Double Through Jianping
Level 6
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Cards were on their backs and Jimmy Saft was all-in for 30,700 and at risk against Cai Jianping.
Jimmy Saft: 10♦10♠
Cai Jianping: Q♥Q♦
Saft was in trouble versus Jianping's overpair, but the 9♠10♥5♥ flop propelled him into the lead with top set.
The K♦ turn brought a bit of a sweat for Saft, with Jianping now also having a gutshot straight draw, but the K♣ river was a brick and Saft secured the double-up.
