Molenaar Doubles Up as Toan Gambles
Level 20
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Gilles Simon opened to 50,000 from early position. It folded to Robbie Toan in the small blind, who three-bet to 185,000. Michel Molenaar then spent one time bank before committing his stack of 490,000 in the middle.
Simon made a quick fold, but Toan went into the tank. "Am I gambling?" he asked himself while he spent two time extensions. "Fuck it," he eventually said as he slammed in a call.
Michel Molenaar: A♥A♦ 
Robbie Toan: K♣10♣
Molenaar had many outs to fade after the J♥6♣7♠8♣ turn, but the A♠ river gave him a safe top set to double up and cross the seven-figure mark.
