Soverel Spikes the River to Double
Level 9
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Sam Soverel moved all in for 151,000 from the big blind and was up against Philip Sternheimer in the hijack.
Sam Soverel: 5?5?
Philip Sternheimer: J?J?
The 4?6?7? flop gave Soverel a number of additional outs as he now had a straight flush draw. Soverel began rubbing his hands together and placed his 5? by the board as the dealer turned over the 2?.
The river, though, came the 5? and Soverel hit a set to double up and leave Sternheimer as an extreme short stack.
