Matt Giannetti Scores Much Needed Double Up
Matt Giannetti moved all in for his last 5,500,000 from under the gun and John Hewitt reluctantly called from the big blind with A
10
.
Giannetti showed pocket jacks and they held when the board fell K 8
4 5 6. He now has over 11 million in chips, but Hewitt is now short with 10,400,000.
Giannetti Doubles Again With Jacks
Pius Heinz raised to 1,100,000 and Ben Lamb reraised to 3,100,000. Matt Giannetti then moved all in for 8,400,000 from the button and Heinz folded.
Lamb called with K 9 and was well behind Giannetti’s J J
. The board rolled out 10 6 3 7 A and Giannetti doubled up to 19 million. Lamb took a major hit down to 21 million.
Badih Bounahra Doubles Through John Hewitt
John Hewitt raised to 1,100,000 and Badih Bounahra moved all in for his last 9,300,000. Hewitt called with K Q, but he was in awful shape against Bounahra’s pocket kings.
The board brought a queen, but Hewitt couldn’t come from behind to bust his opponent. Now Hewitt is on the short stack with 4 million and Bounahra is up to nearly 20 million.
