Vang Spins His Way to a Double Up
Level 38
: Blinds 600,000/1,200,000, 1,200,000 ante
Alen Bakovic shoved for 22,000,000 on the button. It folded to Paul Vang, who conferred with his spinner before he made his decision.
"Let's see what it says," said Vang. Vang spun it a couple of times, presumably to get the answer he wanted, before he also shoved for 10,700,000 to put himself at risk.
Paul Vang: A♠Q♥
Alen Bakovic: 10♦10♠
The spinner proved to be fruitful as the flop was a welcome sight for Vang when it came 2♦A♦8♦ to improve to a pair of aces.
Vang stayed ahead on the 7♣ turn and the K♥ river to score the double up.
