Tang Spikes the Turn to Double Through Petrangelo
Level 9
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Nick Petrangelo opened the cutoff to 65,000 and was called by Danny Tang in the small blind.
On the 8♣6♦4♣ flop, Petrangelo continued for 70,000 before Tang check-raised to 225,000. Petrangelo immediately inquired about the amount of chips Tang had behind.
"620 back," responded Tang, to which Petrangelo quickly announced all-in for 845,000 effective as the covering stack, and Tang called.
"I have middle set," joked Tang as he only showed the 6♣ first.
Danny Tang: 6♣5♣
Nick Petrangelo: A♠8♠
Petrangelo held top pair against the middle pair, flush draw, and gutter of Tang who retained a flurry of outs. No waiting was required on the 10♣ turn as Petrangelo was drawing dead to the 2♣ river and Tang collected his double.
