Samson Doubles Through Conan
Level 9
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Daniel Samson raised it up from early position and Arthur Conan three-bet to 5,000 on his left. Chris Dasilva flat-called on the button but Samson pushed all in for 28,000. Conan just called and Dasilva stepped aside.
Daniel Samson: K♥K♣
Arthur Conan: Q♣Q♦
Samson found himself in a great position to double up with the bigger of the two pocket pairs. The board ran out J♦8♥4♠10♥A♠ and Samson held on for the win.
"That's one way to late register a tournament," Samson said as he collected the pot.
