Mehmet Doubles Through Hawes

Level 10 : 1,200/2,400, 2,400 ante

Tom Rafferty and Andrian Chin have been spotted in the field, the former with a solid big stack of around 150,000.

Charlie Hawes on the same table had about as much when he returned from dinner, however, that has since changed. Hawes raised to 4,800 and reluctantly called the jam of Jake Mehmet for 59,100.

Jake Mehmet: {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}
Charlie Hawes: {8-Clubs}{8-Hearts}

The board came {4-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{7-Spades} and Mehmet doubled.
