Golla Makes Comeback With Two Double Ups
Pratap Golla had just lost a big pot before mounting his comeback in the hands that followed. He pushed all in for 12,000 from under the gun and found a call from Yucel Kaan, who had him covered. Players flipped their cards.
Pratap Golla: 10♠10♥
Yucel Kaan: K♣Q♣
The board ran out 8♦2♣3♠4♣2♦. Kaan picked up a flush draw on the turn to go with his overcards, but Golla managed to hold on the river with his pocket tens to give him a much needed double up.
The very next hand, Golla shoved again for around 27,000 and was called by Mullin Emmett. Again, it was Golla who was at risk. Players turned over their cards.
Pratap Golla: Q♥Q♦
Mullin Emmett: 4♦4♥
This time, Golla was way out ahead with his pocket queens against Emmett's pocket fours. The board ran out 3♠A♥9♦5♣3♦ and Golla held to double up to around 61,000.
