Mandara Doubles With Big Slick
Level 14
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
In a cutoff-against-button situation, Uladzimir Zhyharau and Ryan Mandara got their chips in the middle with the latter at risk for his stack of around 220,000.
Uladzimir Zhyharau: Q♣Q♦ 
Ryan Mandara: A♠K♦
It was an all-too-familiar coinflip which looked to be goung Zhyharau's way after the 2♠8♥J♥ flop, as his pocket queens kept their lead. However, things all changed on the K♠ turn as Mandara paired his king and leapt in front. A J♠ on the river didn't help Zhyharau, and Mandara doubled up.
