Sverre Sundbo Doubles Up

Preflop, Gabe Costner raised to 110,000 chips from late position and Alexandre Gomes called from the button followed by Sverre Sundbo calling from the small blind.

On a flop {6-Hearts} {K-Spades} {4-Diamonds}, the action was checked around by all three players.

On the turn of the {7-Diamonds}, Sundbo checked to Costner, who bet out 180,000 chips. Gomes called. Sundbo then check raised all in for approximately 340,000 more. Costner wasted no time in calling the bet. Gomes thought for about 30 seconds and then folded.

Sundbo: {6-Clubs} {6-Spades}
Costner: {K-Diamonds} {8-Hearts}

A five was the only card that could give Costner the win for this hand. The river card fell the {A-Hearts} and Sundbo doubled up to approximately 1,600,000 in chips.

After the hand, Costner was left with 750,000 chips.
