Big Double for DeVore

Level 26 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Sundiata DeVore

Sundiata DeVore opened to 160,000 under-the-gun and action folded around to Ivan Galinec in the small blind who then decided to just rip his entire stack of 2,735,000 into the pot.

Johann Ibanez in the big blind thought about it for a second but ended up folding but then DeVore made the call, putting himself at risk.

Sundiata DeVore: A?K?
Ivan Galinec: J?J?

"Well, that's not what you wanted to see!" Tablemate Stephen Song joked to DeVore, who nodded in agreement.

But his tune quickly changed when the flop came 10?10?K? to give him the lead.

"Now that's what I want to see!" he said as the board ran out 7?3? to secure his victory for the huge double-up while Galinec was now the one left short.
