A Sharp Double Up

After an opponent opened with a raise to 5,200, Larry Sharp reraised to 14,500. Sharp had approximately 30,000 to begin the hand. The player that raised moved all in when action got back to him and Sharp made the call.

It was a race situation with Sharp taking slightly the worst of it holding {A-Clubs} {Q-Hearts} to his opponent's {10-Spades} {10-Diamonds}.

The board ran out {K-Diamonds} {7-Spades} {4-Clubs} {2-Spades} {A-Diamonds} to give Sharp the double up. He now has around 65,000 chips.
