UTG+2, Robert Douras opened to 160,000. Action folded to Rajbinder Badwal in the Big Blind, who only had another 100,000 or so behind after paying both the Big Blind and the Ante. With the sublime odds offered to him, he made the call for his tournament life.
Robert Douras: 9♠9♣
Rajbinder Badwal: 10♠2♠
Douras was ahead, but keep in mind, ten-deuce was the hand of the late poker legend, the Godfather of poker, Doyle Brunson. Badwal channelled his inner Texas Doyle and summoned the 2♥10♥A♥ flop. Douras didn’t catch up on the 3♠8♣ runout, and Badwal won a crucial pot.
Robert Douras: 2,700,000
Rajbinder Badwal: 600,000
