Double-Ups for Badurowicz and Trojand
Three ways to the 8♠7♠6♥ flop, Jeremy Trojand and Javier Francort checked. Michael Tabarelli bet 7,500, and Trojand was the only caller. That led to the Q♣ turn on which Trojand check-called for another 17,000.
Trojand then checked the 9♦ on the river, and Tabarelli bet the pot. Deep in the tank, Trojand eventually called for his last 43,100, and Tabarelli exposed the A♠K♠10♦5♦ for ace-king high.
Trojand leaned out of his chair to see what Tabarelli had, and Dennis Weiss exclaimed, "Blockers". The A♦8♦8♣4♠ of Trojand secured the double up, with just a pair of eights.
One table over, the turn showed A♠9♦4♦8♠ and Leszek Badurowicz was all-in for 30,800 against Dorel Eldabach.
Leszek Badurowicz: K♠10♦6♦4♠
Dorel Eldabach: A♦K♦Q♣8♥
Eldabach was ahead with two pair and the ace-high diamond draw, while Badurowicz had a gutshot to go with his live spade draw. The river was the 10♠, and Badurowicz improved to a flush for the double.
