Rogers Doubles Through Stewart
Level 13
: Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Jason Rogers shoved for his final 75,000 on the button and was called by Kenneth Stewart from the small blind as Rogers was at risk.
Jason Rogers: 8♠8♣
Kenneth Stewart: 10♥10♠
Rogers was drawing to two outs as his hopes of a double up looked grim.
The flop perked Rogers back up when it came J♣8♦3♥ to give Rogers a set of eights and put Stewart well behind with two cards to go.
The turn would inject some life into Stewart's chances of scoring a knockout when the 9♥ peeled to give him an open-ended straight draw.
Rogers would fade any danger when the 2♠ peeled to seal the deal in favor of Rogers.
