Gotail Spikes Turn to Double
Level 17
: Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Clement Lafon opened to 15,000 from the small blind, and Alexis Gotail three-bet jammed from the big blind for around 59,000. Lafon made the quick call to put Gotail at risk.
Alexis Gotail: 9♣9♠ 
Clement Lafon: A♦K♣
Gotail was ahead in a race, but the ace was in the window on the A♣6♦2♥ flop.
However the 9♦ hit on the turn to give Gotail a set and leave Lafon drawing dead, the 7♠ river completing the board.
