Gabdullin Gets the Double Up

Level 8 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Damir Gabdullin open-shoved from late position for 70,000 and was looked up by the player in the big blind, who had him covered as players flipped their cards.

Damir Gabdullin: A♦J♥
Big Blind: A♣9♠

The flop ran out 4♠6♦7♥ and Gabdullin stayed ahead. As the 6♣ turn dropped, the big blind shouted out for a chop.

"I'm struggling, don't be greedy," said Gabdullin. Thankfully for him, he stayed ahead on the 8♠ river to win the pot, doubling his stack.
