Saakov Secures Double-Up
Niveau 10
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Ramdjee Shahine opened to 4,000 from late position and was met with an all-in jam from Alexander Saakov for 17,500.
Action folded back to Shahine, who said "Let's gamble" as he called.
Alexander Saakov: A♦Q♦
Ramdjee Shahine: 10♦6♦
Saakov's ace-high looked in good shape for the double-up and the Q♥7♦Q♣ flop gave him a near lock on the hand. The A♥ rolled off on the turn to give him the full house and leave Shahine drawing dead, the 6♠ river completing the board.
