Tony G Doubles Through

Tough day for Tony G
Tough day for Tony G
The action folded around to Tony G who raised to 900 from the cutoff, only to find the opponent in the big blind reaching for more chips as he asked, "How much do you have?"

"About five thousand," Tony G replied. The opponent promptly shoved a stack of purples into the middle. Tony G began to count his chips, then gave up in a huff and shoved them in, splashing them everywhere.

Tony G: {10-Spades}{10-Hearts}
Opponent: {6-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}

The board ran out {4-Spades}{9-Clubs}{K-Spades}{2-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}, doubling Tony G up to about 11,000 in chips.
