Kothari Doubles Through Wu
Level 24
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Yake Wu opened from under the gun and action folded around to Harsheel Kothari in the big blind who moved all in. Wu took some time before making the call and the players flipped their hands.
Harsheel Kothari: 8♦9♥
Yake Wu: A♠10♥
Wu was looking to hold and the 5♦6♦10♣ flop kept Wu ahead but Kothari had picked up the gutshot straight and backdoor flush draw.
The 4♠ turn didn't change much, but Kothari hit the straight on the 7♣ river, securing him the double.
