Ramdin Doubles

Team PokerStars Pro (USA) Victor Ramdin
Team PokerStars Pro (USA) Victor Ramdin

Team PokerStars Pro Victor Ramdin had been nursing a short stack but recently received a much-needed double. It happened when "bindernutnut" opened for 550, "fly44" called, and "huge.fishh" three-bet to 1,745. Ramdin, who was in the big blind, then moved all in for 7,103. Only huge.fishh made the call and the cards were turned up:

Showdown
Ramdin: {A-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}
huge.fishh: {K-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}

Ramdin was in great shape to double, and his ace-kicker came into play on the {2-Clubs}{Q-Spades}{6-Diamonds} flop. Unfortunately for Ramdin, the {K-Spades} spiked on the turn to give huge.fishh two pair and the lead. Ramdin needed an ace on the river to stay alive, and that is exactly what happened as the {A-Spades} plopped down! Ramdin hit his three-outer and doubled to over 15K.
