Alston Doubles

Artie Alston moved all-in for the last 1,500 chips in his stack from under the gun. He was called by Mark Cornwall from the button and the two blinds got out of the way.

Showdown:
Alston: {A-Hearts} {4-Clubs}
Cornwall: {A-Diamonds} {K-Hearts}

The board ran out {J-Spades} {5-Spades} {2-Clubs} {9-Spades} {4-Hearts}, with the river being just what the doctor ordered to bring Alston back to life, and double him up to 3,300.
