Jack Sinclair Doubles Through partypoker Sponsored Pro Richard Dubini
Level 15
: 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
It's been a good few hands for WSOP Main Event final tablist Jack Sinclair and we caught up with him and explained how he called in the big blind with 
after partypoker Sponsored Pro Richard Dubini opened from the button.
The flop came 
and both players checked. The turn was the 
and Sinclair bet out and Dubini called. The river was the 
and Sinclair checked to Dubini who jammed for around twice the size of the pot. Sinclair called. Dubini showed and Sinclair scooped a monster double up.
The next hand, he said, he flopped a set of jacks and got two streets of value.
With that, Sinclair moves up to over seven million in chips leaving Dubini with under a million.
Well, that was a good 5 minutes. 2M -> 7.5M in 2 hands #MILLIONSRussia https://t.co/j5cxjzineK
