Depaulo Gets Double Knockout

Jerome Solomon
Jerome Solomon
Level 17 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

The hand was picked up with Shai Zurr having three-bet Erik Bolton all-in with 62,000 from middle position. Matthew Wantman moved all in as well from the cutoff with 125,000.

When the action reached Ryan Depaulo, he elected to call. Bolton, feeling a certain pull to his right folded, and declared he had pocket queens.

Shai Zurr: A♠10♠
Matthew Wantman: K♦K♣All in
Ryan Depaulo: A♦A♥

The runout 9♣3♥7♠9♦J♥ didn't hurt Depaulo's aces, as he picked up the double knockout.
