Luu Gets a Double Through Hall

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

Toko Luu was in the cutoff and moved all in for 48,000. Thomas Hall was in the big blind and called.

Toko Luu: {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}
Thomas Hall: {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}

The classic race was at hand. The dealer fanned out the board, revealing {9-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}, which meant Luu held up and got a nice chip-up off of Hall.

Another player at the table commented, "Well someone had to tame the lion."

Hall has been on a massive rush, taking his Day 2 starting stack of 64,900 and turning it into 354,000.
