Van der Swaluw Doubles
Niveau 20
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Stephane Gabarre opened to 25,000 and Alexander Van der Swaluw three-bet jammed for 100,000. Gabarre made the call to put Van der Swaluw at risk.
Alexander Van der Swaluw: A♠10♠
Stephane Gabarre: A♣8♣
Gabarre remarked he "needed some help" and he looked to have received it after the 8♠K♥Q♦ flop gave him a pair of eights, although Van der Swaluw had the gutshot straight draw.
The 2♠ turn was a brick but the J♥ rolled off on the river to give Van der Swaluw the straight and hand him a lifeline.
