Garshofsky Doubles Through Valverde
Level 26
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Fernando Valverde raised from under the gun to 100,000 and got two calls from Christophe Pommier on the button and Mitchell Garshofsky in the big blind.
The 2♥8♠K♦ flop prompted Valverde to continue for 120,000 and only Garshofsky called.
Valverde bet 280,000 on the K♥ turn and Garshofsky moved all in. Valverde snap-called and the players flipped their hands.
Mitchell Garshofsky: 2♣2♦
Fernando Valverde: K♠Q♣
Garshofsky had flopped a set and Valverde hit top pair, with Valverde improving to trips on the turn. Garshofsky also improved on the turn, sitting with a boat. The 9♥ sealed the double for Garshofsky and left Valverde counting his remaining stack.
