Wolters and Marquez Find Doubles
Level 26
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Erik Lindqwist opened to 100,000 in the cutoff, and Carlo Wolters defended his big blind. The J♠K♠5♦ flop and 6♦ turn were checked by both players, after which Wolters bet 375,000 on the 3♥ river, leaving only 20,000 back.
Lindqwist called after some deliberation, but his cards hit the muck when Wolters tabled K♥7♥ for top pair.
At another table, Ana Marquez got her stack of 305,000 in on the button and was up against Rainer Kempe in middle position.
Ana Marquez: 9♠9♥ 
Rainer Kempe: K♥Q♠
The A♣5♦3♠10♦10♥ board remained devoid of face cards, securing Marquez a double-up.
