Pierce All In, Doubles Up

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Paul Pierce had lost a little since his last double-up an hour or so ago before he moved all in again on a flop of {7-Spades}{10-Hearts}{9-Clubs}. His opponent made the call and the cards were turned over.

Pierce with {a-Spades}{8-Spades} was open-ended and was looking to hit against the {k-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} of his opponent’s top pair.

The turn {j-Clubs} was a card Pierce needed, filling his straight, and a {5-Hearts} river card completed the board to ensure his survival.

Pierce was relieved but not satisfied. “I need three more double-ups,” he said.
