Luo Survives on a Flip
Level 24
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Xixiang Luo raised to 350,000 in the cutoff, leaving only a few chips behind, and Amir Touma moved all in from the big blind. Luo tanked for a minute before committing his last chips.
Xixiang Luo: 8?8?
Amir Touma: A?K?
The board ran out 9?Q?4?4?5? and Luo's two eights stayed in the lead to earn him a double up. After the hand, a tournament official came by to warn Luo about leaving only a little bit in his stack and tanking.
