Cho Doubles With Sixes

Brandon Bloom

Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Arden Cho raised from the cutoff, William Te three-bet from the small blind, and Cho four-bet jammed for 11,800. Te called.

Arden Cho: 6♠6♦
William Te: A♣K♥

The two were racing as the J♦10♥4♠ flop gave Te additional outs with a Broadway draw. The 2♥ turn and 9♠ river bricked out, however, and Cho secured the double with her sixes.
