Loeser Doubles Through Nomura; Nearly Stacks Him
Level 21
: 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Manig Loeser raised to 700,000 from the hijack, Tom Waters called from the cutoff, and Renato Nomura three-bet to 2,575,000 from the button. Loeser shoved, waters folded, and Nomura called with the larger of the two stacks by a very narrow margin.
Nomura: 
Loeser: 
Nomura had the preflop advantage and Loeser needed to improve in order to double up. The board ran out 
to pair Loeser's ace, so he took the pot to leave Nomura with crumbs.
