Riehl Finds an Unexpected Double Up

Level 10 : 400/800, 100 ante

A player opened from the under the gun and Ludovic Riehl defended his big blind. The flop fell {7-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} and all the chips went in the middle with Rhiel at risk for his last 13,000.

Holding {j-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}, Riehl was in desperate shape for a double up, facing {j-Spades}{10-Spades} in his opponent's hand for two pair, but the {2-Diamonds} turn and {k-Diamonds} river gave a runner-runner flush to the French player who now has a stack around 27,000.
