Michael Binger Doubles Through Alexander Kostritsyn

Limit Hold'em

Michael Binger opened for a raise from early position, Alexander Kostritsyn three-bet from the button and Binger called. The flop came down {J-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} and Binger check-raised Kostritsyn. Kostritsyn reraised and the rest of Binger's stack ended up in the middle.

Binger {A-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}
Kostritsyn {8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}

The turn was the {5-Spades} but Binger hit the {A-Diamonds} on the river to double his stack to 61,000 as the players headed off for their final break of the evening.
