Johnson Finds a Lucky Double

Level 17 : 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Rodger Johnson shipped all in for his last 157,000 from middle position and Jake Schindler re-shoved from the small blind. Ben Yu folded his big blind and the two hands were face up. Schindler was in a dominating position with {a-Spades}{k-Spades} against the {a-Hearts}{9-Hearts} of Johnson.

The dealer fanned the flop of {q-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} and Johnson spiked a nine to take the lead. The {7-Diamonds} on the turn provided some chop outs, but the {3-Spades} on the river ensured Johnson a double up.
