Baker Finds a Double
Level 16
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 15,000 ante
David "ODB" Baker moved all in for 114,000 from middle position before Tobias Schwecht re-jammed on the button. The blinds got out of the way to put Baker at risk.
Baker chose to take one, breaking a jack, while Schwecht stood pat with Jx8x7x4x3x. Holding 8x7x5x2x, Baker would need to find a three, four, six, eight, nine or ten to survive and was able to do just that, peeling the 10x to be rewarded for his correct decision to discard the jack with a full double.
