Third Time's the Charm
Level 6
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 0 ante
After shoving all in preflop twice in a row without getting a call from Alex Foxen, Vinny Lingham put all of his chips in for a third straight time.
Foxen thought about it for a few seconds, then made the call.
Vinny Lingham: A♥5♣
Alex Foxen: Q♠J♦
The flop of Q♣K♦2♠ brought a loud groan from Lingham. But the turn of the A♦ brought just as loud a celebratory grunt thanks to his paired ace.
He begged for no change on the river and was rewarded with the K♠, giving him the desperate double-up.
