Another Double-Up for Cao

Level 32 : Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

Just after doubling up, Tai Cao raised his cutoff to 820,000, leaving only 200,000 behind. Gabriel Schroeder was on the button and just called, while the blinds got out of the way.

The flop of J94 saw Cao put his final chips in, and Schroeder made the call.

Tai Cao: KQ
Gabriel Schroeder: A7

Schroeder was still ahead but Cao had a gutshot straight draw in addition to his pair outs. Schroeder solidified his lead on the A turn, but the 10 river saw Cao's Broadway come in and he raked in another double-up.

The River Sees Cao Double Up

Level 31 : Blinds 100,000/100,000, 200,000 ante

Tai Cao open-jammed his final 360,000 chips from the button and Bryan Piccioli paid the extra chips from the big blind to put his opponent at risk.

Tai Cao: A4
Bryan Piccioli: 63

Piccioli was the only one to flop a pair on 2J3, and the 7 turn did not help Cao either. However, the A fell on the river to give him two pair and a much-needed double-up.
