Starek Doubles Through Somers
Level 25
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
This hand was picked up on the flop with over 600,000 in the middle on a board that read 3♣J♣4♥.
Michael Starek checked before Kyler Somers put out a bet of 300,000. Starek went all-in for 645,000, and Somers called to put Starek at risk.
Michael Starek: A♥A♦
Kyler Somers: A♠J♣
Starek needed to fade the jack to double up.
The turn and river were paint, but it wasn't the paint Somers needed when the K♦ came on the turn and the K♠ came down on the river to award Starek the double.
