McNichols Scores Early Double Up
Nível 18
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Maurice Hawkins raised the action as Day 2 started before the flop to 21,000 and was called by the player to his immediate left.
Euan McNicholas, who started the day with 129,000, had other ideas on how the hand would go and moved all in with his remaining chips in late position. After action folded back to Hawkins, he then moved all in, prompting the player to his left to fold.
Hawkins: 8♣8♥
McNicholas: K♣K♦
“I’m lucky,” Hawkins joked when the cards were tabled.
The dealer, though, fanned out 10♠Q♣A♠[7♦9♠, giving the win to McNicholas, who doubled up with a chunk of Hawkins’ stack and the blinds.
