Eveslage Doubles Through Dirksen And Takes Lead
Level 21
No-Limit Hold'em
Chad Eveslage raised to 50,000 from under the gun and Dustin Dirksen three-bet to 200,000 on the button. The call by Eveslage followed and they headed to the Q♣8♠5♠ flop on which Dirksen applied maximum pressure with a shove. Eveslage called and Dirksen instantly asked "do you have queens?"
Chad Eveslage: K♣K♥
Dustin Dirksen: A♠K♠
Dirksen had one overcard to go with his nut flush draw but failed to get there on the 5♥ turn and Q♦ river. Eveslage doubled for 1,005,000 and jumped into the lead.
