Wantman Rivers Two Pair to Double Up

Level 21 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Shaun Deeb raised to 100,000 on the button and Matthew Wantman defended from the big blind. The flop came {6-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} and Wantman led for 50,000, Deen called as the {8-Clubs} came on the turn.

Wantman led out with a bet of 155,000 and Deeb raised the pot. Wantman deliberated for a couple of minutes before finally sticking in his stack of 485,000.

"I don't have much," Deeb said as he rolled over {q-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{8-Spades}. But he was actually in the lead with his pair of eights against the {a-Spades}{7-Spades}{7-Clubs}{5-Clubs} of Wantman. The river brought the {a-Hearts} and Wantman spiked one of his many outs to score a double up.
