Luther Comes Back

Level 14 : 1,200/2,400, 2,400 ante

Having fallen down to a short stack of 16,000 chips, Nikita Luther doubled twice after the bubble burst.

On one hand, she moved all in with {k-Hearts}{4-Hearts} after the cutoff player opened for 5,500 and the latter called with {a-Clubs}{6-Clubs}. The board brought Luther a straight with {j-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{a-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} and she doubled up to 38,000.

Two hands later, she shoved all in once more, holding {k-Hearts}{q-Clubs} after a first player raised. Her opponent called with {3-Spades}{3-Diamonds} and the board brought a {q-Diamonds} on the river to Luther, who climbed to 80,000.

On the other side, Athanasios Polychronopoulos and Adrien Delmas busted right after being in the money.
