Covrig Doubles in Roller Coaster Runout
Level 32
: 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Sergiu Covrig raised the button and Michael Strauch three-bet to 2,100,000. The jam by Covrig followed and Strauch asked for a count. It was 6,200,000 in total and Strauch turned around in his seat to ponder about the decision. He then called with the superior stack and both players revealed an ace.
Sergiu Covrig: 
Michael Strauch: 
The 
flop was no threat yet for the Romanian but the 
turn gave Strauch the lead. However, it was Covrig's rail that celebrated as the 
river completed the turnaround once more and sent Covrig on top.
