Martinez Doubles Through Piazza

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Edinson Martinez shoved from early position for his last 68,000 and Roberto Piazza called from the big blind to put him at risk.

Martinez: {K-Clubs}{8-Clubs}
Piazza: {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}

Piazza had the preflop advantage and Martinez needed help from the deck in order to survive. The flop came {9-Spades}{7-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}, which kept Piazza ahead but gave Martinez some additional outs in the form of an open-ended straight draw. The {4-Clubs} turn changed nothing, but the {K-Spades} on the river gave Martinez a pair of kings, so he took the pot to double up.
