Zobian Scores Double Knockout
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Three players, including Garen Zobian, were all-in before the flop in a showdown of big hands.
Zobian had the other two players covered, but he was behind when cards were tabled.
Zobian: A♥J♥
Opponent #1: A♣Q♣
Opponent #2: 10♣10♥
The flop, however, made it very interesting when 8♠7♠J♣ hit the board. Zobian seized control with top pair, but Opponent #2 had a gut shot, while Opponent #1 could hit one of the three remaining queens.
The dealer placed A♦ on the turn to give Zobian top two pair, while 6♣ showed up on the river to give Zobian the win.
Zobian’s double knockout boosted his chip stack over the million mark.
