Steinman Continues to Succeed on the Short Stack
Nível 26
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 0 ante
No-Limit 2-7 Single Draw
Ian Steinman, who has battled back from as few as 30,000 chips to reach this point of the tournament was again on the short stack, but it continues to not be a problem for him.
In a recent hand of No-Limit 2-7 Single Draw, Steinman moved all in for 385,000 from early position over a 120,000 chip under-the-gun open from Tamon Nakamura.
Each player drew one card and revealed what they were drawing to.
Ian Steinman: 8x5x4x3x/Xx
Tamon Nakamura: 9x7x6x4x/Xx
Nakamura showed his draw first, pairing his 7x, meaning that any card other than an eight would give Steinman the win.
While an Ax wouldn't be great most times in an all-in situation, it certainly was here to give Steinman a double-up.
