Little Doubles Back Up

We weren't lying when we called this the Level of the Double-Up. Most recently it was Jonathan Little's turn. He opened preflop for 35,000 before small blind Layne Flack re-raised to 150,000. Little seemed to know what was coming next.

"I'm all in," he said with a sigh.

"I call," Flack said in the same tone.

Little: {A-Diamonds}

Flack:

Flack took a bigger lead on the flop by making a set of jacks, {3-Diamonds}

.

"Nice hand," said Little. The turn then popped off {10-Spades}

to give Little a Broadway straight.

"Nice hand," Flack repeated. The river did not pair the board, falling instead the {A-Spades}

. Flack had to pay 348,000 total chips to Little.

"The ol' 'nice hand' trick," said Steven Fung to Little with a laugh. "He tried to do it right back to you."

"The difference is I really thought I was going to lose," Little replied. Not this time.
