Day Doubles Through Marx
Level 27
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Daniel Marx raised to 160,000 from early position and Ronnie Day moved all-in for 1,150,000 after it folded around.
Marx went deep into the tank before ultimately deciding to make the call with the covering stack.
Ronnie Day: A♥K♣
Daniel Marx: K♦Q♦
Marx needed to catch one of the remaining three queens in the deck, or straight or flush cards, in order to achieve the come-from-behind victory.
However, the flop provided little help as the 10♠K♥2♠ board offered no flush and few straight opportunities, and the 10♥ turn and 9♠ sealed the deal for Day.
