Barka Doubles with Two Pair

Level 17 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Samy Barka in the big blind and Daan Vandewalle in the hijack were facing each other on a board of K♣A♥8♥J♥3♦ with already 218,000 in the pot. Vandewalle ended up moving all-in and Barka called off his last 169,000.

Samy Barka: J♠8♣ All in
Daan Vandewalle: 10♦7♦

Barka called with two pair, catching Vandewalle bluffing with his missed straight draw to secure a double-up.
