White Comes Back from the Dead
Level 23
: 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante
Hoa Thinh Nguyen raised to 50,000 from the button and Michael Falcon in the small blind three-bet to 125,000. Nguyen four-bet to 400,000 and Falcon quickly folded.
Then, over on table one, Mike Takayama pushed from the small blind and Corbin White called for his last 146,000 in the big blind.
Corbin White:
Mike Takayama:
The flop left White with barely any hope, but the American picked up some outs with the turn. A miracle river gave White a straight and he scored an unexpected double.
