Raskin Doubles Opponent, Still Among Leaders

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

A player open-shoved for 9,825 in middle position, and Micah Raskin called on his direct left. The rest of the players folded, and the hands were tabled.

Raskin: {a-Spades}{q-Spades}
Opponent: {7-Clubs}{7-Hearts}

The dealer fanned {8-Spades}{j-Clubs}{3-Clubs}, giving Raskin two backdoor draws to go with his over cards, but the {6-Diamonds} on the turn killed his chances of making a straight or a flush. The {2-Diamonds} on the river was a brick as well, and the gentleman with wired sevens doubled through.

Raskin is still trending up despite doubling the player, and sits with what looks like 120,000 or so.
