Pocket Rockets Propel Christian Christner to a Double

Level 20 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Steffen Sontheimer raised to 70,000 holding the {a-Clubs}{4-Clubs} in the cutoff and Christian Christner just called from the small blind with the {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}. Fedor Holz came along from the big with the {a-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} and the flop came down {2-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}.

Holz checked, Sontheimer continued for 40,000 with his flush draw, and Christner just called. Holz got out of the way and it was heads-up action to the {8-Spades} turn.

Christner checked again and then snap-called off for 410,000 when Sontheimer moved in.

The {q-Diamonds} river failed to help Sontheimer, and he sent some chips over to his German counterpart.
