Emmel Doubles Through Bosschaerts

Level 13 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

Jeosafat Cruz raised to 7,000 from the under-the-gun position and action folded to Matthew Emmel in the small blind who called. Tom Bosschaert was sitting in the big blind and checked out the stacks of his two opponents. He then decided to three-bet to 30,000. Cruz considered it for a bit and then folded. Emmel shoved for 111,500 in total and Bosschaert snap-called.

Matthew Emmel: {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}
Tom Bosschaert: {A-Hearts}{k-Clubs}

The flop came {6-Hearts}{10-Spades}{j-Clubs} to give Emmel a set of tens but also provided Bosschaert with a gutshot straight draw. The {9-Clubs} turn and {5-Hearts} river bricked for Bosschaerts, however, and Emmel doubled up.

Spencer Champlin

Spencer Champlin raised to 7,000 from the cutoff and was called by Hugo Alfaro on the button. Blake Bohn in the big blind also called.

The flop came {9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{k-Spades}, Bohn checked. Champlin bet 20,000. Alfaro thought about it for a while, glanced at his cards again, and then folded. Bohn shoved for about 95,000 and Champlin snap-called.

Blake Bohn: {J-Hearts}{10-Clubs}
Spencer Champlin: {K-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}

Bohn had flopped a straight draw, but Champlin was currently ahead as he flopped two pair. The {j-Spades} on the turn gave Bohn some extra outs, but the {2-Hearts} on the river wasn't what he needed as he was sent to the payout desk.
