Lamb Double, Still in Trouble

Ben Lamb got involved with Ahmad Abghari on a {2-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{a-Clubs} flop, on which Abghari bet. Lamb, in the under-the-gun position, checked, and found himself facing a bet from Abghari. With just 20,000 left to his name, Lamb tanked up for a long time, before eventually folding.

In the big blind next hand, Lamb tossed his whole stack in before the cards were dealt, declaring, "4,000/20,000 limits," to some chuckling around the table.

Duly Abghari raised from the button, Lamb had already gone all in, and they were on their backs.

Abghari: {a-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}
Lamb: {q-Spades}{3-Spades}

"I'll have a pair of threes, sir," Lamb told the dealer.

Ask, and ye shall receive.

Board: {8-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{k-Hearts}

Said tablemate Terrence Chan as Lamb doubled up again, :Listen, we'd like to make the final table at some point..."

Lamb is still teetering on the edge at 45,000.
