Coelho Denied a Double on the River
Level 24
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Start of day chip leader Rokas Asipauskas opened to 100,000 from the hijack and was called by Hengtao Zhu from the button. Diogo Coelho then jammed for 420,000 from the small blind. Asipauskas folded to put the action on Zhu. Zhu shrugged his shoulders, and chucked in a chip after some thought.
Diogo Coelho: A♣8♣
Hengtao Zhu: 10♦8♦
Coelho had Zhu dominated, and looked certain for a double after the K♣Q♠7♠ flop and 3♦ turn. However, the 10♥ came on the river, giving Zhu a pair to secure the elimination.
