Dockal’s Chip Stack Surges With Two Knockout Wins

Level 17 : Limits 5,000/10,000, 0 ante

Paul Dockal enjoyed a profitable pair of hands within minutes of each other, scoring knockouts on both.

On the first hand, Dockal defended his big blind after Galen Novello raised in early position. The flop produced J88, and Dockal bet into Novello, who called. The turn brought the 5 and Dockal once again bet, which prompted Novello to make an all-in bet as a short stack. Dockal quickly called and tabled 87 to show trips, as Novello turned over J10 for top pair. The river brought a blank, and the dealer pushed the pot to Dockal.

A few hands later, Dockal scored another knockout when he stacked Michael Bennett.

“You’re the terminator,” a player at the table said to Dockal.

The two wins saw Dockal’s stack swell from a Day 2 start of 64,500 to a current 189,000.
