Joe Matheson Doubles Up

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Jim Boone raised to 2,800 in middle position. The player next to act reraised to 8,000. Joe Matheson shoved all in for 26,000 on the button, and the player in the big blind reshoved over the top for 31,000. Boone folded, and the player to his left folded pocket tens face up.

Matheson: {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}
Big Blind: {k-Spades}{k-Hearts}

Before the flop was dealt, the player who had folded the tens said, "I definitely folded the winner."

His prediction seemed to come true as the dealer dealt the {10-Hearts}{9-Spades}{2-Diamonds} flop.

The {3-Clubs} turn and {9-Clubs} river ensured Matheson's double up.
