Boatman Doubles Through Messmer
Level 31
: 50,000/100,000, 15,000 ante
Aaron Messmer opened to 300,000 from middle position, Justin Liberto called from the button, and Barny Boatman shoved from the big blind for 1.17 million. Messmer called, and after a bit of time in the tank, Liberto folded.
Aaron Messmer: 
Barny Boatman: 
Boatman had the preflop advantage and Messmer needed to improve in order to stack him. The board ran out 
and Boatman took the pot with top two pair to double up, leaving Messmer extremely short.
