Pearson Doubles Again
Level 13
: Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Action folded around to Nathathai Pearson in the small blind who made it 15,000 to go. Zack Brannon then reraised all in from the big blind to put Pearson at risk who had 114,000 to start the hand. Pearson thought for a moment before making the call.
Nathathai Pearson: A♥Q♦ 
Zack Brannon: 8♠8♦
It was a fair fight but Pearson pulled ahead on the A♠Q♠9♣ flop, improving to two pair, aces and queens. The turn landed the 9♠ and Pearson filled up on the A♣ river to secure the double up.
