Sheets Doubles Through Thurman

Level 26 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

Dennis Thurman raised it up in early position, and Thomas Sheets three bet it out of the small blind. Thurman tagged along, and the flop came down {j-Hearts}{10-Spades}{2-Diamonds}. Thurman open shoved all in for his last 348,000, and after some deliberation, Sheets made the call.

Sheets: {q-Hearts}{q-Spades}
Thurman: {9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}

Sheets had the worst hand that Thurman could have seen, as two of his outs were gone. Thurman was looking for a seven or one of the two queens left to complete his straight, but the turn and river came down the {6-Clubs} and {j-Diamonds}.

After that hand, Sheets is up to 850,000, while Thurman drops down to 525,000.
