Johnny Lodden Doubles Up

Johnny Lodden
Johnny Lodden
Johnny Lodden makes it 1,200 to go and the button reraises to 5,000 after asking for a count of his stack. Johnny puts the rest of his chips, totalling 7,000, in the middle and his opponent calls the extra two. On their backs:

Johnny: {A-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}
Button: {A-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}

Board comes {Q-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{J-Clubs} and the Norwegian pro is back up to 15,000.

Doctor For Mr Black

Andy Black makes it 1,200 pre-flop and the button makes it 3,600 total from a stack of 8,000. Back round to Andy and he calls quickly; he then moves all in on the {3-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{8-Clubs} flop. "I don't like that," Andy says as he is insta-called. {K-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds} for Andy and {Q-Hearts}{Q-Spades} for his opponent. No miracle king on the turn or river, and Andy is left calling for a doctor as he feels he has completely lost the plot.
