Wilkins Doubles into Chip Lead

Level 25 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

Samuel Roussy-Majeau open-jammed on the button and Matthew Wilkins called all-in out of the small blind.

Roussy-Majeau: {k-Hearts}{10-Spades}
Wilkins: {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}

A race for the chip lead was up for grabs as the dealer fanned out a {a-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} board and Wilkins' pair held up to give him the double up and propel him into the chip lead, holding more than half the chips in play.
