Goossens Doubles Twice at the End
Level 25
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Aleksej Grenz raised to 180,000 in early position before Alberto Cigliano three-bet to 500,000 in middle position. Guy Goossens called for his last 325,000 in the small blind, while Grenz folded.
Guy Goossens: 10♣9♣
Alberto Cigliano: K♣K♠
Goossens had run into kings and was at risk of busting right at the end of the day, but he was saved by the 5♥J♣J♥A♣4♣ board making a flush to double up.
The next hand, Goossens shoved from the button for 700,000 as big blind Xhavit Berisha considered the decision. He eventually called.
Guy Goossens: A♠9♠
Xhavit Berisha: A♦2♦
Goossens was ahead this time and the 3♥8♦7♠Q♥K♦ board didn't have anything for Berisha as Goossens doubled for the second straight hand.
