Olshan Doubles Through Bazeley

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Christian Harder opened on the button, and David Olshan jammed in the small blind for 167,000. Jake Bazeley shoved for more in the big, and Harder folded.

Olshan: {a-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}
Bazeley: {10-Clubs}{10-Spades}

Bazeley's dominating hand turned to napkins on the {a-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} flop, and the {5-Hearts} and {q-Spades} turn and river didn't help him retake the lead.
