Thorson Dodges One

On the turn, Team PokerStars Pro William Thorson was all in with the stone-cold nuts -- {7-Clubs} {6-Clubs} -- on a board of {9-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{5-Spades}. His opponent was Cornel Andrew Cimpan who held {10-Hearts} {7-Hearts}. Despite holding the nuts, Thorson was far from in the clear as Cimpan had outs to a flush or a higher straight.

The river card produced nothing too eventful when the {A-Diamonds} fell. Cimpan was left with only 7,500 chips while Thorson moved up to double the starting stack of 100,000.
