Lady Luck Makes Loeser a Winner

Level 7 : 250/500, 75 ante

The player under the gun raised to 1,525, and action folded around to Manig Loeser on the button. He looked down at his cards and carefully counted out his stack. He took one last look at his cards before piling his remaining 13,100 chips into the middle. His opponent asked for a count and eventually called.

Loeser was at risk with {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}, up against his opponent's {a-Spades}{q-Hearts}. He had to dodge an ace and managed to do so after the board ran out {j-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{5-Diamonds}, locking up the double for the German pro.
