Wakeman Doubles Through Lee

Level 12 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Matthew Wakeman
Matthew Wakeman

Matthew Wakeman shoved from the button for 36,000 and was called by Hun Wei Lee in the big blind.

Matthew Wakeman: {k-Clubs}{5-Clubs}
Hun Wei Lee: {10-Spades}{10-Hearts}

The flop came {k-Spades}{2-Clubs}{5-Hearts} for Wakeman to hit two pair immediately.

The turn was the {j-Diamonds} which didn't change things. Wakeman just needed to avoid another ten to stay alive and the river completed the board with the {5-Diamonds} for Wakeman to improve to a full house to double up.
