Two Double Ups in a Row
Level 20
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Robin Kayalsum flopped trips with 10♣5♣ on the 10♠10♦4♦ flop and called the shove by Nico Wiechers, who had the Q♦Q♥. The J♠ turn and 3♠ river were both blanks and Kayalsum doubled.
Jehan Richards jammed for 245,000 preflop and was looked up by Gustav Louw with a small pocket pair.
Jehan Richards: A♥2♥ 
Gustav Louw: 4♦4♣
The J♥8♣3♣A♦8♦ board improved Richards on the turn and he told Louw "good call".
"Of course it was a good call, you doubled," a somewhat sour Louw responded.
In the meanwhile, Simon Solomon hit the rail to reduce the field to the last 40 hopefuls.
