Amiri Doubles Through Luo
Level 16
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Ehsan Amiri opened to 20,000 in the cutoff and Louis Luo made the call in the small blind.
Luo checked the 9?8?A? flop, calling when Amiri continued for 10,000. Luo then led out on the 2? turn, betting enough to put his opponent at risk.
Amiri counted his stack before sliding it into the middle, leaving his tournament life on the line.
Ehsan Amiri: A?6? 
Louis Luo: J?8?
Amiri was ahead with top pair, and was able to fade on the 10? river to double through Luo.
