A Pair of Doubles

Level 27 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante

Hand #1: All of the chips got into the middle preflop between Matthew Ludiker and Jordan Walker, both of whom were in early position with Ludiker at risk and in need of help to stay alive.

Matthew Ludiker: {a-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}
Jordan Walker: {k-Diamonds}{k-Spades}

Walker had Ludiker in dominated shape through the flop {2-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{8-Hearts} and turn {8-Clubs}, but the river {a-Clubs} saved him and scored him the double.

Hand #2: On the adjacent table, Cy Church opened to 175,000 in middle position and Jonathan Bagwell re-jammed in the cutoff, with Church making the call.

Jonathan Bagwell: {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}
Cy Church: {2-Clubs}{2-Hearts}

No deuce came on the runout and Bagwell scored the double.

Jerry Morrell Eliminated in 17th Place ($2,934)

Level 27 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante
Jerry Morrell
Jerry Morrell

Jerry Morrell opened to 175,000 under the gun and wound up getting all in preflop against James Callanan, who was on the button.

James Callanan: {a-Clubs}{k-Spades}
Jerry Morrell: {8-Clubs}{8-Spades}

The flop came {j-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{a-Hearts} to give Callanan top pair, top kicker and bring about a fist pump from him. He remained on top through the {4-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} runout and his stack was counted to be 2.215 for the double. After paying it off, Morrell was left with just one big blind and lost it on his very next hand after being forced to commit the rest of his chips in the big blind, only to pick up six-three offsuit.
