Diac Goes Runner-Runner For a Miracle Double
Level 19
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Catalin Diac moved all in for 89,000 in the hijack and Martin Sladek put him at risk in the big blind.
Catalin Diac: A♥8♠
Martin Sladek: Q♥Q♣
The Q♠9♥7♠ flop gave Sladek top set and Diac was already getting up from his seat as the A♠ arrived on the turn. The river was the K♠.
"You win," a tablemate told Diac, who had made a running flush on the river to crack Sladek's set and earn a double up.
