Mikesell Doubles Through Sanoubane, Leaves Him on Fumes
Scott Mikesell raised to 17,000 from middle position and found one caller in Bobby Sanoubane from the big blind before seeing the flop come 8♥A♣7♦.
Sanoubane checked to Mikesell, who continued with a bet of 30,000. Sanoubane made the call to see the 9♣ hit the turn.
Sanoubane checked once again and Mikesell put out another bet, this time for 40,000. Sanoubane thought briefly before asking to see Mikesell's stack. After a moment, he moved all-in for around 300,000 total only to see Mikesell snap-call to put himself at risk and send both players to the river.
Scott Mikesell: 9♥9♠
Bobby Sanoubane: A♥K♠
Sanoubane quickly realized that they were headed to a meaningless 2♥ river as he was drawing dead to the set of nines of Mikesell, who secured a huge double and left Sanoubane with less than 10 big blinds.
