Nick Polydoros Scores Knockout And Double
A player opens the button to 4,000 and Nick Polydoros three-bet shoves for just over 20,000 from the small blind.
The big blind folds and the player on the button calls. The stacks are extremely close so each player is more or less playing for their tournament life.
Polydoros has the best of it, holding to his opponent's .
The board runs out and Polydoros' aces hold up to score him the double up.
When the chips are counted though, he has just 300 more than his opponent so he also scores a knockout, bringing this Event #49 field closer to the money and to the 100 player mark.
Polydoros is now playing just under 45,000.
