Luske Doubles Through His Rival

Level 31 : 100,000/200,000, 30,000 ante

Marcel Luske managed to get his stack of 2,050,000 into the middle preflop and got action from Jake Bazeley. The two players have been exchanging words all day, so it was only fitting they would find themselves flipping at some point.

Luske was at risk with {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs}, up against Bazeley's {a-Spades}{k-Hearts}.

The flop came {q-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{2-Hearts}, and Luske remained ahead with a pair of tens. Bazeley's rail started calling for a king, but the {6-Clubs} hit the turn.

Another railbird yelled, "C'mon! Barry Greenstein on the river!"

The river was the {6-Spades}, though, and Luske held on to double up.
