Bronshtein Doubles Through Edwards
Level 16
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
After a raise in early position by Paul Edwards to 12,000, Yuval Bronshtein three-bet from the small blind to 40,000. Edwards called and the duo saw a flop.
It came Q♦J♥4♠ and Bronshtein bet 110,000, leaving just 6,000 chips behind. After a bit of thought, Edwards made the call to put Bronshtein at risk.
Yuval Bronshtein: A♥A♣6♦2♥
Paul Edwards: A♠8♦5♠4♦
Bronshtein's aces were well ahead of Edwards' pair of fours and backdoor flush draws. The K♦ on the turn gave Edwards some hope, but the 9♣ on the river ended that, sending the double up to the always dangerous Bronshtein.
