Katz Doubles Through Ligeri

Level 2 : 500/1,000, 1,500 ante

Justin Ligeri opened under the gun to 3,500, Tom Marchese made it 12,000 and Cary Katz shoved all in from the big blind. Ligeri announced a call and action was back on Marchese.

"That's his folding face," Katz observed. "I know his folding face."

Indeed, Marchese pitched his cards and left Katz and his {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds} against {k-Spades}{10-Spades}. The {a-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{8-Clubs} board meant a double for Katz, and he collected 123,500 from his neighbor.
