Zgorski More Than Doubles

Level 9 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
Mike Zgorski
Mike Zgorski

The player in the middle position pushed his last 4,700 in and was called by Neel Murthy in the late position. Action folded to Mike Zgorski in the big blind who shoved too but for more. Murthy asked for a count and the dealer confirmed Zgorski had 23,100 behind. Murthy called.

Middle Position: {4-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}
Mike Zgorski: {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}
Neel Murthy: {8-Spades}{8-Clubs}

The flop came {9-Hearts}{5-Spades}{k-Diamonds} for Zgorski to hit a set immediately.

The turn was the {8-Hearts} for Murthy to hit a set too. Another eight on the river would mean that Murthy would score a double knockout but the {10-Diamonds} completed the board instead for Zgorski to more than double.
