Ohel All-In Again, Doubles Again

Has the momentum shifted again? Another double for Randy Ohel tells us so.

He opened from the button and called a three-bet from Benjamin Lazer. Both drew one and Ohen called a bet.

Lazer stood pat and Ohel drew one. Lazer led for 60,000 and after some thought Ohel moved all-in for 80,000, and drew one last time as Lazer stood pat.

Lazer opened {10-}{9-}{5-}{2-}{4-}.
Ohel opened the cards he had seen so far: {6-}{5-}{7-}{3-}.

"What do I have to beat? At ten?" asked Ohel. He opened a {2-} and his rail went wild.

Ohel took down the next pot uncontested and is back up to 485,000.
