Sander Doubles Through Nemeth
Level 15
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Oleksii Kovalchuk raised to 16,000 and Andras Nemeth three-bet to 60,000 in the small blind. Philipp Sander then four-bet jammed in the big blind for 158,000 and Kovalchuk folded. Nemeth pondered about his decision for a mere fifteen seconds and called with the far superior stack.
Philipp Sander: A♦Q♥
Andras Nemeth: 10♥9♥
Sander's lead grew far bigger on the Q♠5♦3♦ flop and Nemeth needed running cards to deal the final blow. One of them came with the 8♠ turn but the 4♦ river ensured the double of Sander.
