Stahl Crippled as Wolak Doubles

Marsha Wolak cheers her double up.

Katherine Stahl limped in early position as did Marsha Wolak in the cutoff. Karina Jett checked her big blind as the three saw a {A-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} flop where fireworks would ensue. Jett checked to Stahl who bet 40,000 and Wolak moved all in. Stahl made the call and after it was counted down, she had Wolak who had 250,000 left barely covered as the players showed their holdings.

Stahl: {A-Spades}{8-Spades}
Wolak: {A-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}

Stahl was in commanding lead with her top two pair but Wolak picked up a flush draw when the {4-Diamonds} hit the turn. The river came the {6-Diamonds} to give her the flush as she doubled up and Stahl was crippled.
