Wilsmann Doubles Up

Level 7 : 300/600, 100 ante

Jona Wilmsmann shoved all in from under the gun for 7,700 and Par Johanssen did the same with the bigger stack from mid-position. The rest of the table folded so their cards could go on their backs.

Jona Wilmsmann: {k-Hearts}{q-Spades}
Par Johanssen: {A-Spades}{K-Diamonds}

The flop came {q-Clubs}{9-Spades}{j-Clubs} for Wilmsmann to flop a pair of queens and Johanssen the straight draw,

The turn was the {6-Spades} which didn't change the situation, neither did the {j-Diamonds} on the river as the double-up of Wilmsmann was secured.
