Ly Doubles Through Adams

Level 14

Pot-Limit Omaha:

After a raise to 20,000 from Randy Ohel, Minh Ly moved all in for 78,000. Brandon Adams then raised to pot and Ohel quickly got away.

Brandon Adams: {K-Spades}{K-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{7-Diamonds}
Minh Ly: {A-Clubs}{A-Spades}{K-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}

It didn't look great for Adams, as Ly was holding a bigger pair and one of his king outs. The flop was {J-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{2-Spades} which didn't change much either. Adams did pick up some outs on the {8-Hearts} turn, but the river was the {3-Diamonds} and that meant Ly would double up.
