Hollak Doubles With Pocket Rockets
Niveau 14
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
With the flop showing 10♥9♠5♦, Day 1a chip leader Joost Hollak bet 16,000 with Shakhabiddin Muradov making the call.
Hollak fired a bet of 50,000 upon seeing the 6♥ hit the turn. Muradov shoved for Hollak's remaining 75,000 and Hollak called.
Joost Hollak: A♠A♦ 
Shakhabiddin Muradov: Q♦10♦
Hollak was ahead with his overpair but had to fade a queen or a ten on the river to stay alive. The blank 2♣ river was exactly what Hollak was looking for as he doubled up with pocket aces.
