Thorson Doubles Through Houghton

Houghton - always the doubler, never the doublee
Houghton - always the doubler, never the doublee
We caught up with William Thorson as he bet 3,000 on a {5-Clubs} {8-Diamonds} {7-Spades} flop. Laurence Houghton raised to cover Thorson, and with a sigh he tossed the last of his chips in. On their backs.

Thorson: {5-Diamonds} {6-Diamonds}
Houghton: {A-Diamonds} {7-Diamonds}

Turn: {9-Diamonds} to give Thorson the straight

River: {10-Clubs} to harmlessly improve Thorson's straight

Houghton slips down to 30,000, while Thorson enjoys a full a full double up to around 25,000.
