Haarstad Doubles Through and Then Chops With Chan

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

The following action took place in back-to-back hands.

In the first hand Thomas Haarstad raised it to 2,800 from the button after preflop action was folded to him. After the small-blind player folded, Andy Chan moved all in and Haarstad called all in for his tournament life.

Thomas Haarstad: {q-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}
Andy Chan: {a-Clubs}{10-Hearts}

Haarstad never had a sweat as the board ran out {9-Spades}{5-Spades}{q-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}, which gave him the full house and double-up.

In the very next hand action again folded around to Haarstad, who once again raised it up and once again Chan moved all in. Haarstad made the call.

Andy Chan: {a-Spades}{3-Spades}
Thomas Haarstad: {a-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}

The board ran out {2-Clubs}{k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{q-Diamonds}, which resulted in a chopped pot.
