Garshofsky Doubles Through Valverde
Level 26
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Fernando Valverde raised from under the gun to 100,000 and got two calls from Christophe Pommier on the button and Mitchell Garshofsky in the big blind.
The 2?8?K? flop prompted Valverde to continue for 120,000 and only Garshofsky called.
Valverde bet 280,000 on the K? turn and Garshofsky moved all in. Valverde snap-called and the players flipped their hands.
Mitchell Garshofsky: 2?2?
Fernando Valverde: K?Q?
Garshofsky had flopped a set and Valverde hit top pair, with Valverde improving to trips on the turn. Garshofsky also improved on the turn, sitting with a boat. The 9? sealed the double for Garshofsky and left Valverde counting his remaining stack.
