Phil Laak Doubles Through Jay "WhoJedi" Newnum

Feb 21, 2010

In the final few hands of the day, Phil Laak has moved all in for three out of the last four hands. Laak seems to be playing a double-me-up-or-send-me-home strategy.

On the fifth hand (which is the last hand of the day), Jay "WhoJedi" Newnum raises to 7,000, Phil Laak moves all in for 39,400, and Newnum calls with [AdJd]. Laak shows [Kh10d], and he’ll need to improve to stay alive. 

Newnum’s hand holds up through the turn, but a king hits on the river to give the pot to Phil Laak and double him up.

Phil Laak  –  85,000
Jay "WhoJedi" Newnum  –  41,000
