Aldemir Secures Small Double

Level 11 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Paul Volpe and Koray Aldemir were both short and in the small and big blind respectively. Volpe moved all in and after some consideration Aldemir called.

Koray Aldemir: {j-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}
Paul Volpe: {7-Clubs}{10-Clubs}

Aldemir was ahead, but would have to survive an anxious turn and river after Volpe flopped a flush draw on {2-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{k-Hearts}. The turn was the {2-Diamonds} and the river the {3-Diamonds} and Aldemir survived, doubling up to 370,000. Both players have sub-20 big blind stacks.
