Assante Makes Great Call; Doubles Huge Through Wexler

Level 21 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

The board read {4-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds} and there was roughly 100,000 already in the middle. Michael Assante fired 60,000 into the middle and Jonas Wexler announced that he was all in. This was a bet for Assante's life.

Assante took a moment, took what looked to be a deep breath, and announced a call. Wexler quickly showed {8-Hearts}{6-Hearts} for merely a flush draw and Assante made the correct read- tabling his {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}. He still needed to dodge a heart on the river and he did exactly that as the {4-Diamonds} fell and he was able to double huge up to about 985,000. Wexler, the one time massive chip lead, has now fallen to about 590,000 in chips.
