Double for Tahtouh

Emad Tahtouh
Emad Tahtouh
Emad Tahtouh has just doubled up after getting all of his chips in on a flop of {10-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}. His opponent was chip leader Andre Villandberg who tabled {J-?}{10-?} for top pair, but he was left drawing to runners as Tahtouh flipped {8-Spades}{9-Spades} for the flopped straight.

The turn was the {Q-Diamonds} and river the {9-Diamonds} to double Tahtouh up to 107,000. Villandberg is still in good shape with 90,000.
