Langsweirdt Successfully Dodges His Way to a Double
Level 5
: 300/600, 600 ante
Luke Langsweirdt was on the button and got his last 37,400 in the middle on a flop of 5♠7♠6♦ against Christopher Ma in the cutoff.
Luke Langsweirdt: 9♥8♠
Christopher Ma: 6♣6♠
Langsweirdt had flopped a straight and needed to avoid the board pairing to stay alive in the Main Event. He stood up from his seat as the dealer turned over the 3♥, followed by the J♥.
"You're still here," his tablemates told him as he sat back down after doubling up. Brent Hanks later revealed he folded 4x3x for the bottom end of a straight.
"I keep folding big hands," Hanks said.
"You should've been out a long time ago. In a good way, not in a bad way," Langsweirdt told him.
