Luo Doubles Through the Chip Leader

Level 26 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Maksim Shornikau opened to 180,000 from the button and Shuang Luo defended from the big blind.

The flop came KKJ. Luo checked, Shornikau bet 80,000 and Luo called.

Both players checked the J turn leading to the 6 river. Luo moved all in for 500,000 and after using one time extension Shornikau made the call.

Shornikau tabled A3 for ace-high while Luo showed down K9 for kings full of jacks to score a full double up through Shornikau.
