Strobel Doubles Last-Minute
Level 13
: Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Stephen Song opened to 10,000 under the gun. Adrian Strobel then put his stack of 56,000 in the middle from middle position, with Severi Palmu calling the all-in bet on the button.
Song got out of the way, leaving the other two players to show down.
Adrian Strobel: K♥K♦ 
Severi Palmu: A♦J♣
Strobel flopped a set on J♠K♣3♥ and secured his double-up on the 8♦ turn. The A♠ river changed nothing as Strobel climbed back above starting stack with a couple of hands to go on Day 1.
