Tell Me Moor, Tell Me Moor, Did You Get Very Far?

Attemping to follow in Moorman2's footsteps.
Attemping to follow in Moorman2's footsteps.
Chris Moorman has just managed a luckily double up.

"The Hungarian guy in seat 1 was opening about 95% of pots from the cutoff before the antes so he's probably opening 99% of them now we have them. The small blind then flatted and he's been limping on the button a lot and not wanting to play big pots. So I jammed 33BB's with {Q-Hearts} {4-Hearts} from the big blind but the Hungarian guy actually had {A-?} {J-?}!" he explained.

The board came {J-Hearts} {10-?} {5-?} {A-Hearts} {K-?} and suddenly from being one card away from elimination, the Brit now has just over 20,000.
