Rob Sherwood Doubles Through

In a battle of the blinds, Bob Sherwood (as the announcer is inexplicably calling him) gets it all in preflop against chip leader Santeri Valikoski in the small blind, the Finn making the final call.

Sherwood: {A-Clubs}{J-Clubs}
Valikoski: {A-Hearts}{9-Hearts}

What a flop!

{10-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{9-Clubs}

Rob goes off to celebrate with the rail, but is his chicken-counting premature?...

Turn: {10-Diamonds}

But despite the last minute panic, the river bricks out with the {K-Spades} and Bob doubles through.
