Betbese's Deuces Hold for a Double
Level 31
: Blinds 120,000/240,000, 240,000 ante
Nicolas Betbese moved all in from the cutoff for his last 875,000, and Dennis Ng quickly shoved over the top from the button. The blinds got out of the way, and the cards were tabled.
Nicolas Betbese 2♥2♠
Dennis Ng: A♣Q♣
Betbese held a slight lead with his pocket deuces and just needed them to hold. The board ran out 10♦5♣J♥6♠10♠, offering Ng no help, and Betbese's ducks held strong.
With that, Betbese scored a timely double-up to keep his tournament hopes alive.
