Big Slick for a Big Double
Level 5
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
After Radoslav Stoyanov opened from middle position to 1,500, Justin Zaki elected to re-raise to 2,900 chips. Not enough for Brian Yoon in the big blind, who put in another raise making it 7,300 to go. Stoyanov released, and Zaki pushed the rest of his chips in the middle totaling a bet of slightly under 18,000. Yoon called without hesitation.
Brian Yoon: A♥Q♦
Justin Zaki: A♦K♣
The board ran out 10♠5♦3♦2♥7♦.
This runout was no help for the dominated ace of Yoon, and Zaki found a crucial double up shortly after coming back from break.
