Taylor Catches a Miracle River to Double
Level 21
: Limits 40,000/80,000, 0 ante
Limit Hold'em
Roman Verenko raised before Esther Taylor reraised on the button. Verenko called to see the 10?3?K? flop.
Verenko checked, Taylor bet, Verenko raised, and Taylor called off her remaining chips.
Esther Taylor: A?A?
Roman Verenko: K?10?
Taylor discovered the bad news when she found out Verenko had cracked her aces with a flopped two pair.
The 2? fell on the turn and Taylor was one card away from elimination, but the 3? on the river improved her to a better two pair and she doubled up.
