Laaky Double Up

Phil Laak
Phil Laak

With a raise from early position to 2,500, play folded around to Phil Laak in the small blind who moved all in for an additional 8,200. His opponent made the call.

Laak: {A-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}
Opponent: {Q-Hearts}{Q-Spades}

"Well, I would like an ace," sighed Laak, but he got better than that as the board ran out {9-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} to make the nut flush for the double up. He's up to 23,300.
