Rollercoaster for Ludlow
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
On a heads-up turn of 5♥10♥7♣5♠, Matt Sabia led out for 4,400 and then Ben Ludlow raised it up to 13,000.
After a few seconds, Sabia announced he was all in for around 20,000 and Ludlow made the call to put him at risk.
Matt Sabia: 7♦7♥
Ben Ludlow: A♥10♠
"Oooohh," the table let out a collective gasp as the hands were tabled, with Ludlow needing only a ten to take the pot.
The river 3♥ did not do it for him and Sabia was awarded the full double-up while Ludlow was short stack once again.
Lucky for Ludlow, the very next he picked up pocket aces and managed to get it all in against Ari Katz and doubled back up himself.
