Provost Doubles Through Miller

Level 8 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Thomas Provost raised to 3,500 from middle position and Deborah Miller called from the small blind while Juan Llamas came along from the big blind.

The flop was {10-Spades}{k-Spades}{9-Hearts} and Miller bet 7,000. Provost shoved for 25,800 and Llamas folded before Miller tossed in the chips to call.

Thomas Provost: {k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}
Deborah Miller: {q-Hearts}{j-Hearts}

Miller flopped a straight and Provost had a set of kings. The turn was {9-Clubs} and Provost made a full house. The river was an inconsequential {5-Hearts} and Provost secured the double.

"Grrrrrr," Miller said after considering other less appropriate comments.
