Blumenthal Booms Double

Level 29 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante

From the cutoff, Nicholas Blumenthal shipped his final 720,000 into the pot and Ricky Fohrenbach iso-shoved the button.

Blumenthal: {K-Spades}{K-Hearts}
Fohrenbach: {J-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}

With Blumenthal in the lead, the {10-Clubs}{8-Spades}{7-Diamonds} flop gave Fohrenbach an additional four outs to a gutshot.

The {4-Clubs} on the turn changed little, and when the {6-Diamonds} landed on the river, Blumenthal was pushed the double to roughly 1,800,000 as Fohrenbach slipped to roughly 1,700,000 in chips.
