Weiss Doubles With Aces

Level 5 : 200/400, 400 ante
Walter Weiss
Walter Weiss

The board read {6-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} with around 4,800 in the middle and three-way action. Walter Weiss checked from the small blind, as did the player in the big blind to put action onto Gary Herstein, who bet 5,200.

Weiss check-raised all in for 19,400 and the big blind folded. Herstein thought for close to a minute and then tossed in chips to call.

Walter Weiss: {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}
Gary Herstein: {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}

Weiss' aces were ahead of Herstein's tens with two cards to come. The turn {6-Diamonds} and river {7-Hearts} completed the runout to score Weiss the double, bringing Herstein back to around 25,000 in chips with Weiss finding himself with over two starting stacks when all was said and done.
