Powell Doubles, No Sweat

Jack Powell managed to get his opponent to stack off drawing completely stone dead. Powell, Mahmood Ayaz and a third player took a flop of {3-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}. Action checked to the third player, whose bet of 3,000 was called only by Powell. Powell checked again on the {6-Clubs} turn, then shoved all in for 22,000 after his opponent fired a second bullet for 5,000. That player called with {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts} for two overcards and the nut flush draw, but none of those outs were good against Powell's full house, {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}. He doubled up to 54,000 without having to sweat the river card.
