Brecher Crippled

Level 16 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

On a {5-Spades} {8-Clubs} {10-Diamonds} flop, action checked to Kunal Patel, and he made a bet of 7,500. Lawrence Jacobs check-raised to 21,000, and Steve Brecher reraised all in for 73,600 behind him. That put the action back on Patel, and he called all in for 60,000, forcing Jacobs to lay his hand down.

Showdown
Brecher: {A-Spades} {10-Hearts}
Patel: {K-Clubs} {K-Hearts}

Patel was well in front, and he was pleased to hear that Jacobs also folded ace-ten. The turn {2-Hearts} and river {8-Diamonds} kept his kings safe, and he's doubled up to 172,000.

It's the second consecutive double that Brecher has donated, and this one cripples him all the way down to just 6,800 lonely chips.
