"Nordberg" Doubles Through 'BodogAri'

Peter "Nordberg" Feldman has just managed to double up through Alan "BodogAri" Engel after getting it all in pre-flop holding pocket tens against Engel's eights.

The {7-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{6-Spades} flop - a scary one for Feldman - gave Engel outs to a gutshot straight, but it was the {8-Clubs} on the turn that ultimately gave him the lead in the hand. Needing to spike a ten or a nine to stay alive in the tournament, Feldman breathed a sigh of relief when the {9-Diamonds} popped off on the river, giving him a ten-high straight and ~80,000 in new chips.
