Peters Doubles; Salter Left Short
Level 7
: 250/500, 50 ante
Tobias Peters just managed to double through his left-hand neighbor Jack Salter. The cards were already all on the table and it looked like a coinflip preflop.
Salter was playing 
and Peters was playing 
. The board ran out 
and after the dealer counted Peters' stack it was clear that Salter would be left with a very small stack. Peters doubles to 80 big blinds while Salter is left with just 5 big blinds.
