Aces Help Gamliel to Double
Level 27
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
From early position, Bogdan Roman raised to 100,000, and Amiel Gamliel shoved for 275,000 out of the small blind. Roman called, and the players went to a showdown.
Amiel Gamliel: A♠A♣ 
Bogdan Roman: 5♦5♥
Gamliel had found aces at the perfect time and just needed to dodge an unfortunate runout to double up to over ten big blinds.
The dealer produced a board of 7♣Q♥8♥6♠K♠, keeping Gamliel's bullets ahead the whole way, and he earned the much-needed double-up.
