Choi Doubles Through Gooch

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

Sung Ju Choi completed the blind and Jason Gooch moved all in to set Choi in for his last 36,000 or so. Choi stacked all of his chips after a few moments and slid them in.

Gooch was forced to show {10-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} and Choi revealed just {j-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}. The {7-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{8-Spades} flop mean Gooch could only win with a four but that's exactly what arrived on the turn: {4-Spades}. Choi now needed to improve but he did so when the {10-Clubs} fell to give him the straight.
