Luo Finds a Miracle Double Up


Around 80,000 was in the pot as Shuang Luo, Nariman Yaghmai, and Atil Okay in the hijack saw a flop of 3?7?4?. Okay then moved all in for 145,000.
Luo called for her last 130,000 as action went on Yaghmai. "Crazy," tablemate Nina Krasilnikova said. Yaghmai eventually folded.
Shuang Luo: 8?7?
Atil Okay: J?J?
"What," Krasilnikova said upon seeing Luo's hand. Okay was poised to scoop the massive pot with his pair of jacks until the 8? turn improved Luo to two pair. The river was the 5? and Okay could only laugh as Luo earned a massive double up.
"You called all in with seven-eight," an incredulous Krasilnikova asked after the hand.
"She put him on sixes, fives, or a flush draw," Andrea Dato replied.
Okay was left on an extreme short stack and was eliminated a few hands later.
