Herstein Hangs On to Double Off Katchalov
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Action folded around to Gary Herstein who moved all in for 20,500 in the small blind, and Eugene Katchalov called in the big blind.
Gary Herstein: Q♠Q♦
Eugene Katchalov: K♠5♠
The 4♣7♦6♥ flop gave Katchalov additional outs with a straight draw, but he improved no further on the 9♥ turn or 5♥ river as Herstein's queens held up to earn him the double up.
