A Double Nonetheless

Stewart Morrison
Stewart Morrison
Level 4 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

A very short-stacked Keyavash Hemyari opened to 10,000, leaving himself just 1,000 behind. When the action folded to Chance Kornuth, he set Hemyari all in, who called.

Keyavash Hemyari: 7♥6♣ All in
Chance Kornuth: 9♦8♠

Hemyari was readying to leave as the board was dealt to a K♠3♦2♦5♥ turn, but the 6♥ rolled off on the river, seeing him find a double up, albeit to only 9 big blinds.
