Boatman Doubles Through Aido
Level 25
: 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante
Barny Boatman shoved from early position for 9,600,000 and Sergio Aido called from the small blind to put Boatman at risk.
Boatman: 
Aido: 
Aido was way ahead before the flop with the larger of the two pocket pairs and Boatman needed to improve in order to preserve his tournament life.
"Tens are never any good at showdown," said Boatman before the dealer ran out the 
board to give him a set of threes. Boatman took the pot to double up and take a significant chunk of Aido's stack.
