A Pair of Doubles Through the Chip Leader

"miw210x"
"miw210x"

Hand #1: In Level 29 with blinds of 25,000/50,000 and an ante of 6,250, "IReadYrSoul" open-jammed for 1.63 million effective in the small blind and "miw210x" called it all off in the big blind.

"miw210x": {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}
"IReadYrSoul": {6-Clubs}{5-Hearts}

"miw210x" saw one of their opponent's two undercards connect on the flop {10-Clubs}{q-Spades}{6-Spades}, but the turn {10-Hearts} left them with just two outs to fade. Neither hit on the river {4-Spades} and "miw210x" scored the double.

Hand #2: A few hands later, another all-in preflop situation arose with "rule22" at risk in the big blind against "IReadYrSoul," who was on the button.

"rule22": {k-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}
"IReadYrSoul": {a-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}

"rule22" missed on both the flop {q-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds} and turn {2-Diamonds} to leave them with one shot left at hitting the five outs they had. Fate favored their fortunes as the river came {8-Clubs} to improve them to queens and eights and keep them alive in the tournament as a result.
