Ko Doubles Through Rheem
Level 8
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,500 ante
In a battle of the blinds, Young Ko moved all in from the big, and after some jibing wordplay, Chino Rheem called.
Rheem drew one, and the Ko had a decision to make with his convertible jack Jx9x6x4x2x.
He opted to stand pat, and Rheem began an agonizing squeeze. "It's a no-sider," he said excitedly, but then revealed that it was a three that paired his hand, and Ko doubled up.
