Daniel Laidlaw has just managed to double up and now looks like a real threat here at the ANZPT Queenstown Main Event final table. The hand began with Jonathan Bredin opening to 12,000 from under the gun. Colin Carpenter flat-called on the direct left of Bredin and it was folded around to Laidlaw on the button. Laidlaw moved all in for 112,000 and Bredin re-shoved, forcing Carpenter out of the hand.
It was a race situation with Laidlaw holding 
and having to come up against the 
of Bredin. The 
flop was no good for Laidlaw, but the 
turn was what he was looking for. The 
river was safe and just like that Laidlaw had doubled. Bredin is still well and truly the chip leader.
