Noam Doubles Up

Jacob Wilson

Level 13 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

In the cutoff, Rob Hollink raised it up to 9,000, before getting three-bet by small blind Danny Noam, who chose a sizing of 22,000. Without much deliberation, Hollink, covering Noam, then shoved for 113,00 effective, a bet that was snapped off by Noam.

Danny Noam: A♣K♣ All in
Rob Hollink: A♥Q♣

Hollink was in bad shape, and the K♥7♠8♦ flop had his equity plunge even further. The 5♠ turn sealed the deal for Noam, meaning the Q♠ river was nothing but a needle to Hollink
