Liedtke Doubles
Level 17
: 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Mark Liedtke raised to 21,000 on the button, and Dong Chen reraised from the big blind. Liedtke had 31,000 in total and quickly called.
Mark Liedtke: A?J?9?4?
Dong Chen: K?K?Q?10?
"You have kings!?" Liedtke said, "Well, I can beat that, I'm sure."
The flop of 4?3?2? gave Liedtke a pair and a straight draw, but he was still behind to the pair of kings. The 7? turn was no help, but the J? river improved him to two pair, which meant he could stay sitting in his chair a little longer.
