Szyghanov Doubles in Blind on Blind Cooler
Level 17
: Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Yakiv Syzghanov limped from the small blind, and Antonello Ferraiuolo pumped it up to 17,000 from the big blind.
Syzghanov quickly responded with a three-bet to 38,000, and Ferraiuolo four-bet jammed with the covering stack. Syzghanov quickly moved his 101,500 total stack into the middle.
Yakiv Syzghanov: Q♠Q♦ 
Antonello Ferraiuolo: J♥J♦
In a cooler both players had premiums, but Syzghanov's had the best of it. There were no surprises on the K♠Q♥6♣9♦4♥ runout, Syzghanov flopping middle set, and dodging his opponent's turned gutshot.
