Damasco Doubles Against Evans

Erick Torres

Level 24 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Rickey Evans opened to 120,000 from the cutoff before Rommel Damasco went all-in for 385,000 from the big blind. Evans called to put Damasco at risk.

Rommel Damasco: 4♣4♥ All in
Rickey Evans: A♠7♥

Damasco needed to fade the overcards of Evans, and the flop did just that when the dealer fanned out 9♣5♥Q♠ to keep Damasco in the lead.

The 9♥ turn was not a great card for Damasco, as now Evans could counterfeit him if the board paired again.

Damasco avoided such disaster on the 10♣ river as he secured the double.
