Hand #80: Tim West Doubles Through Thomas Roupe

Sirous Jamshidi has the button. Leo Wolpert raised to 75,000, and then Tim West reraised to 425,000 from the cutoff. It folded to Thomas Roupe who then pushed all in from the big blind. Wolpert folded, and West and Roupe showed their cards.

Roupe {7-Clubs}{7-Spades}
Tim {8-Diamonds}{8-Spades}

Roupe had West covered, but West had the best hand going to the flop.

The flop came {9-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{3-Spades}. The turn was the {6-Clubs} and the river the {4-Diamonds}. West doubled up to about 1 million, while Roupe is now the short stack with approximately 350,000.
