Zipf Finds a Double
Level 26
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Hans Thumann raised to 100,000 in the hijack and Robert Zipf shoved the big blind for 340,000. After counting out his stack, Thumann called.
Robert Zipf: A♦Q♥ 
Hans Thumann: A♠5♠
Zipf was ahead, and pulled further into the lead on the Q♣8♥9♥ flop as he made top pair. Thumann did find a glimmer of hope on the 5♦ turn, but the 4♦ river didn't help him, which meant Zipf doubled up.
