Wasicka Doubles Up

[user75032]

With blinds at both of the remaining tables now up to 2,000 and 4,000, the action is picking up. Paul Wasicka was all in pre-flop as the short stack against Annie Duke. Wasicka was also behind in the hand, tabling {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{10-Hearts}

against Duke's {J-Clubs}

{J-Clubs}

{J-Spades}

.

Wasicka has a large contingent of family supporting him from the rail, and they were thrilled to see an ace flop, {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{8-Clubs}

{7-Hearts}

. That ace proved decisive after a turn of {7-Spades}

{7-Spades}

and a river of {2-Hearts}

{2-Hearts}

. Wasicka doubled up, allowing his match with Duke to continue.

Duke could only offer a tight-lipped smile after the hand.
