Sheppard Doubles Through Buzgon

Level 15 : Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Daniel Buzgon opened to 10,000 from the cutoff, and Joshua Sheppard moved all in from the big blind. Buzgon took some time before deciding to make the call, and the cards were turned up.

Joshua Sheppard: 88 All in
Daniel Buzgon: KQ

"Fair fight," commented another player at the table before the 1047 flop hit the felt. Sheppard survived the 9 turn and 2 river, doubling up through Buzgon.
