Maheshwary Gets a Welcomed Double Up
Level 20
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
It was a three-way limped pot going to a flop of K♦J♣8♠ and Igor Holdaiy tossed in a bet of 50,000 in early position. Jorryt van Hoof called on the button and Shrey Maheshwary came along from the big blind.
The turn was the 6♣ which turned out to be the action card. Maheshwary started with a check and Holdaiy bet the pot of 270,000. Van Hoof called and Maheshwary check-raised all in for 545,000. That barely opened the door for Holdaiy to reshove all in and Van Hoof was forced to fold.
Maheshwary turned over K♣8♦4♣2♣ for two pair and a flush draw while Holdaiy just had A♣J♥7♣2♠ for a pair and the best flush draw. The river was the 8♥ and Maheshwary improved to a full house and vaulted up the leaderboard late on Day 2.
