Vayssieres Finds Double-Up
Level 13
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Georgios Tsouloftas opened to 5,000 from early position, and was met with a three-bet to 30,000 by Nicolas Vayssieres in middle position, who had about 24,000 left behind.
Action folded back to Tsouloftas, who smiled and asked his opponent "Do you want to go home?", before four-betting with the covering stack. Vayssieres quickly got the rest of his chips in the middle.
Nicolas Vayssieres: A♠Q♠ 
Georgios Tsouloftas: 7♥7♣
Vayssieres needed some help from the board, and got it on the A♣6♦2♣ flop. That left Tsouloftas needing to bink a seven on the turn or river, but it did not come on the 6♥K♠ runout.
