Suck, Re-Suck, Politakis Doubles

Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

From under the gun, Alex Lavinthal opened to 11,500 and the action folded round to Alex Politakis in the big blind and he moved all in for 69,000.

"Will you show me if I fold?" asked Lavinthal. Politakis didn't budge. After roughly two minutes, Lavinthal called.

Lavinthal: {A-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}
Politakis: {7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}

With Politakis holding the lead, the {3-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{2-Spades} flop saw Lavinthal surge ahead until the {7-Clubs} on the turn would render yesterday's Mix-Max 4th place finisher drawing dead as the {2-Hearts} paired the board on the river.
