Jiang Catches Runners to Double
Level 30
: 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Action folded to Bruce Jiang in the cutoff who slid his last 375,000 into the middle. Peter Thai called in the small blind.
Bruce Jiang: J♦10♦
Peter Thai: Q♥7♦
The flop came 2♦4♠Q♦, giving Thai top pair and putting one foot out the door for Jiang. The 9♣ turn gave Jiang an open-ended straight draw and the 8♣ river completed the runner-runner nut straight for Jiang who survives another all in to double to 1,070,000.
