Congratulations to Travis Preng from Las Vegas, NV who finished ninth in our DeepStack Extravaganza I Event #49 $400 NLH DoubleStack $100K GTD winning $2,486.

Preng was eliminated by Corbin Avery. This hand began with Preng raising to 60K from UTG and Avery called. The flop fell 7♥ Q♦ Q♥. Avery checked, Preng bet 64K, Avery raised to 245K, and Preng called. The turn came 4♥, and Avery shoved with his 800K-ish chips. After a long deliberation, Preng called . Avery’s 10♥ 6♥ flush was far superior to Preng’s pocket nines. A 7x on the river sealed Preng’s fate.
