Wirgau Doubles Up
Level 2
: Blinds 200/300, 300 ante
With about 3,100 in the middle and four players seeing the 8♥9♦K♦ flop, action checked to Sean Jazayeri, who fired a bet of 1,500. Daniel Wirgau didn’t waste much time and shoved for his last 17,200. Orion Gallagher and Nikola Gunchev got out of the way, but Jazayeri quickly made the call.
Daniel Wirgau: K♠9♠
Sean Jazayeri: 10♦8♦
Wirgau had flopped top two pair, while Jazayeri held a pair of eights with a flush draw and some straight possibilities.
The K♥ on the turn gave Wirgau a full house, locking up the hand, and the A♥ river changed nothing.
Wirgau secured the double-up and chipped back up to a healthier stack.
