Herberts Doubles in First Hand
Level 19
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Andre Herberts didn't waste any time in getting involved as in the first hand dealt he shoved for 74,000 under the gun. Marko Topic was in the next seat and took some time before he reshoved, which got everybody else to fold.
Andre Herberts: A♦9♥ 
Marko Topic: 10♦10♣
Topic was best with his pocket tens, but the Q♠A♥8♣ flop gave Herberts top pair. No tens arrived on the 5♣J♠ runout, and Herberts doubled up, while Topic's stack took a hit.
