Hand #39: Alex Perelberg Doubles Through Matt Casterella

Apr 8, 2009

Perelberg moves all in under the gun for 137,000, and Casterella calls from the big blind with [4c4d]. Perelberg shows [Ad3d], and he’ll need to improve to stay alive.

The flop comes [Qd6s5d], and Perelberg flops a flush draw. The turn is the [9c], and Perelberg needs an ace or a diamond on the river to stay alive.

The river card is the [Kd], and Perelberg catches the card he needs on the river once again to double up and stay alive.
