Andrulis Back Up to 20 Big Blinds

Level 22 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
Kristijonas Andrulis
Kristijonas Andrulis

The Kristijonas Andrulis comeback continued.

This time, the Lithuanian open-shoved for 111,000 from under the gun, and David Peters re-shoved in the hijack seat. The rest of the players folded.

Andrulis: {a-Spades}{8-Spades}
Peters: {8-Clubs}{8-Hearts}

Andrulis was up against the ropes and in terrible shape, and the {j-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{6-Diamonds} flop improved his hand but slightly. With running pair cards higher than an eight, he could counterfeit Peters' pair, and with running spades he could make a flush. The {k-Spades} was the best non-ace card in the deck, keeping both of his backdoor draws alive, and the {a-Diamonds} spiked on the river to give him a pair of aces.

He doubled to 254,000 chips, while Peters dropped down to 135,000.
