Lisk Doubles Through and Cripples Pantaleo

Blinds: 8,000/16,000

Giuseppe Pantaleo raised 36,000 from the button. Steven Lisk jammed all in for 171,712. The big blind folded, Pantaleo called, and it was off to the races for Lisk. Except it would be a one-legged race.

Lisk: A♠6♦
Pantaleo: 9♦9♣

Lisk received a little help on a flop of K♣4♦6♠, and then a LOT of help when the A♦ spiked the turn. The river did not deliver the nine that Pantaleo suddenly needed, and Lisk doubled up.
