Sands Doubles Thru Somerville, Who Busts Soon After

Level 2 : 50/100, 0 ante

David "Doc" Sands opened to 275 from early position, Jesse Martin called on his direct left, and Jason Somerville three-bet to 1,100 out of the big blind. Only Sands called.

The flop fell {3-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{8-Clubs}, Somerville led out for 1,600, and Sands made the call. The turn was the {4-Diamonds}, Somerville fired another bullet worth 3,300, and Sands moved all in for just a few thousand more. Somerville begrudgingly called.

Somerville: {q-Clubs}{j-Hearts}
Sands: {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}

Sands was well ahead with a set of tens, but Somerville could still make a straight with a nine. The {6-Spades} bricked on the river however, and Sands doubled.

Somerville was left with just 2,600, and busted soon after.
