Luke Brereton Doubles Up
Level 27
: 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante
A player in early position raised to 135,000, a player in middle position called, and Luke Brereton moved all in from the cutoff for 890,000. The original raiser called, the middle-position player folded, and the two players tabled their hands. Brereton was at risk holding 
, and had to win a coin flip against his opponent's 
in order to double up. The 
flop gave Brereton a set of eights and a commanding lead, the 
on the turn and 
on the river changed nothing, and Brereton took the pot.
