El Doble for Andreas Torbergsen

The day has not been kind to Andreas Torbergsen. With a dwindling stack, he raised to 1,125 from late position. The small blind reraised to 2,500. Not to be outdone, Torbergsen put in the third raise to 6,000, which the small blind called.

On a flop of {9-Hearts} {6-Clubs} {6-Spades}, the small blind bet enough to put Torbergsen all in, about 5,000. Torbergsen made the call. His pocket tens were ahead of the small blind's pocket sevens, and held up through the river.

Torbergsen now has about 23,000 in chips.
