Luke Vrabel Doubles; Goes Nuts

Level 24 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante
Luke Vrabel - Going Nuts
Luke Vrabel - Going Nuts

There was an open to 50,000 from late position, and Luke Vrabel three-bet to 115,000 on the button. That wasn’t the end of it, though, as the player in the small blind four-bet jammed for 450,000. The original raiser got out of the way, and Vrabel called.

Small Blind: {a-}{q-}.
Luke Vrabel: {k-}{k-}

The flop was a fairly safe {j-}{8-}{3-}, but the turn card {10-} gave Vrabel’s opponent a double-gutter. Vrabel was out of his seat anticipating the pain to come if his opponent got there on the river.

The final card, though, was a {7-}.

“F#%k yes!” Vrabel screamed, going nuts as the chips were pushed his way. He eliminated a player to crest one million chips for the first time in the Colossus.
