State Hits the Turn to Double His Short Stack
Niveau 2
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
A player in early position raised to 1,600 and received three callers as action went on big blind Adrian State who moved all in for 7,500. The cutoff then reraised to 13,400 and the rest of the table folded.
Adrian State: J♣9♦
Opponent: K♥Q♥
The 6♦6♥4♦ flop left State at risk of elimination, but he caught the 9♥ on the turn to take the lead with two pair. His opponent picked up a flush draw but missed the 2♦ river as State doubled up.
"Gamble, gamble," he said while collecting his new-found chips.
