Featured Table - Vincent Secher Doubles Up Again
Apr 15, '08
After Vincent Secher reraises preflop, Thomas Boekhoff pushes all in, having Secher covered. Secher thinks before calling with pocket jacks, and Boekhoff turns over A 10. Daniel Negreanu says that he hates the move Boekhoff made with A-10, because he had seen Secher reraise and commit himself with the stack that he had. The board ran out 6 5 2 2 5, putting out two pair, but leaving Secher in the lead to take down the pot. He now sits with 429,000, and Boekhoff is down to 512,000.
