Shimizu Scores Massive Double Before Break
Level 33
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Nozomu Shimizu announced all in with what has become a familiar gesture, hands pointing to an apex above his head.
With around 7,000,000 in front of him, action folded to Josh Reichard, who called.
Nozomu Shimizu: 9?9?
Josh Reichard: Q?Q?
The dealer spread a flop of 6?3?9?, catapulting Shimizu into the lead. The board ran out 6? 5? and Shimizu took the hand.
Chip counts were extremely close but after a count it was established that Reichard covered, but he was left on fumes.
