Theo Jorgensen Doubles Through Sorel Mizzi

As the excitement continued to build, Theo Jorgensen increased his stack twofold after an encounter of such high drama that it would have made an EastEnders cliffhanger look tame.

With Sorel Mizzi raising to 60,000 preflop, Jorgensen made it 180,00 and Mizzi called. On the {A-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} flop, bedlam ensued, with both players shoving their stacks across the line and rising from their seats in anticipation.

As the crowd edged the rail forward and the salivating press closed in, the hands were revealed.

Mizzi = {2-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}
Jorgensen = {J-Spades}{A-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}

"Low card!" screamed the Mizzilites.

Turn = {3-Spades}

The Mizzilites went berserk.

River = {A-Spades}

The Mizzilites stopped going berserk.

Jorgensen, meanwhile, leaped into the air as if launched out of a cannon and celebrated with fellow countryman Martin Vallo on the sidelines. Mizzi, on the other hand, could but slump back in his seat with the look of a child who'd just had his favorite toy snatched from his grasp.
