Armstrong Secured Double Up
Daniel Armstrong was in the small blind and watched as a player in early position moved all in for 181,000.
After the action folded to him, Armstrong put his tournament life at stake by also moving all in with his remaining 112,000.
The big blind, who had both players covered, looked at his cards, then pondered the action in front of him. He took a few moments before folding his hand, and Armstrong and his opponent tabled their hands.
Daniel Armstrong: A♦Q♦
Opponent: K♦K♣
Armstrong was behind preflop and needed help, but it didn’t come when the dealer fanned 6♠J♥2♠ on the board. The A♠ on the turn, however, gave Armstrong the lead, which he kept when the river produced a blank.
The big blind said he folded pocket jacks as the dealer pushed the pot to Armstrong, who scored a much-needed double up.
