Zullo Doubles Up

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

With about 18,000 already in the middle and the board reading {J-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}, Mark Zullo checked from the small blind, the big blind checked, and the player under the gun bet 13,000. Zullo check-raised all in for 64,600 and the big blind quickly folded. The under-the-gun player asked for Zullo's stack to be counted down and then called to put him at risk.

Zullo: {10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}
Opponent: {5-Spades}{3-Spades}

Zullo's opponent was ahead with two pair, but Zullo had a diamond flush draw in addition to his pair of tens, giving him a fair amount of equity heading to the river. It was the {10-Clubs} which gave him trips to take the pot and double up.
