Stoica Secures Double in Vital Flip

Frank Visser

Level 30 : Blinds 50,000/125,000, 125,000 ante

Roman Stoica was on the button. He raised to 250,000 once it had folded around to him, which Longmao Fan three-bet to 750,000 in the big blind.

Stoica moved all in for 2,275,000 after little thought, and Fan snap-called him with a covering stack.

Roman Stoica: J♠J♦ All in
Longmao Fan: A♦K♦

A low full house appeared on the 3♥5♦3♠5♥3♦ board, meaning Stoica's jacks held on to double up.

Fan, meanwhile, was left with just over three big blinds in his stack.
