Held Doubles Through Eychenne
Level 14
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Justus Held got his stack off around 650,000 in from the button and Thomas Eychenne made the call out of the big blind to try and bust him.
Justus Held: A♦Q♣
Thomas Eychenne: K♥10♣
Held was ahead with ace-high, although Eychenne had two live cards working for him.
Neither player improved on the J♣6♦5♥J♥7♦ runout, and Held's ace-high earned him the much-needed double-up.
