Gordon Doubles Through Laak

Phil Gordon moved all in on a flop of {Q-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{5-Spades} and got a call from Phil Laak. When the cards were revealed, Gordon held {Q-Clubs}{J-Spades} for top pair while Laak held {K-Hearts}{7-Hearts} for a flush draw.

Gordon slumped over the table in obvious misery as he waited for his fate to be dealt, but he didn't have to worry as the board ran out {Q-Spades}{K-Clubs} giving him trips and a much-needed double up.
