Horecki Doubles Through Adamkiewicz

Shirley Ang

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

PokerStars Team Pro Marcin Horecki was sitting with a big stack in front of him after he had just doubled up against Rafal Adamkiewicz. The board and hole cards were already gone but Horecki was kind enough to tell us what had happened:

"He raised to 18,000, I three-bet to 46,000, he shoved, I call. I had less and I had aces. He had queens. Nothing on the board, jack-high. I have about 460,000 now."
