Cunningham's Turn to Double

Level 27 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Brent Cunningham jammed for 1.03 million from the small blind, and Brett Apter quickly called in the big blind.

Brent Cunningham: {a-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}
Brett Apter: {10-Spades}{10-Hearts}

"Woke up with a hand there, eh? Nice hand, man." Cunningham told Apter.

Cunningham picked up two more outs on the {q-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{3-Hearts} flop, and three more on the {q-Spades} turn. Cunningham was looking for an ace, jack or three to survive, and just like the last double-up at the table, the {a-Spades} fell on the river to give Cunningham aces-up and the double.

Apter Finds River Magic For a Double

Level 27 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Brett Apter raised to 120,000 from the cutoff, and Kyle Cartwright three-bet shoved for 1.8 million in the big blind. Apter, who had 1.22 million to start the hand, made the call after a few moments in the tank.

Brett Apter: {a-Diamonds}{q-Spades}
Kyle Cartwright: {j-Spades}{j-Clubs}

The {9-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{4-Clubs} flop was safe for Cartwright's jacks, as was the {6-Spades} turn. Cartwright couldn't fade the six-outer on the {a-Spades} river, however, and Apter doubled up while Cartwright was left with just over ten big blinds.

Kyle Cartwright raised to 125,000 from the cutoff, and Laura Hoppe called in the big blind.

Cunningham Doubles Through Apter

Level 26 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Brent Cunningham jammed for 895,000 from the cutoff, and Brett Apter three-bet shoved for 1.6 million on the button, chasing out the blinds.

Brent Cunningham: {3-Hearts}{3-Spades}
Brett Apter: {a-Clubs}{k-Spades}

The {9-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{6-Hearts} flop was safe for Cunningham's threes, and the {8-Hearts} turn took some of Apter's outs away. This proved key as the {a-Hearts} river paired Apter, but gave Cunningham a flush and the double.
