Glantz Sticking Around

In three-way action, Matt Glantz got his last 9,000 into the pot with the mighty {2-Diamonds} {3-Diamonds} , and he had to love the news when both Mike Summers and Taemee Feuer got it all in with {A-Clubs} {K-Clubs} and {A-Hearts} {K-Diamonds} respectively. Glantz could beat that.

The board, if you please: {6-Diamonds} {8-Diamonds} {5-Clubs} {3-Hearts} {4-Hearts} . Feuer and Summers get their money back, but not before they each give 9,000 to Glantz to more than quadruple him up to 38,000.

On the next hand, Charles Croft raised to 23,000 under the gun, and Glantz called all in for his 37,000 remaining chips. Croft quickly called with {Q-Hearts} {J-Clubs} , and Glantz's {K-Hearts} {10-Spades} was out in front for a shot at doubling him up again.

Sure enough, the board came {9-Hearts} {8-Hearts} {8-Diamonds} {A-Diamonds} {A-Spades} , holding Glantz's king in the lead and earning him that double. Mark him down for 89,000. "Hey, two more doubles and you're the chip leader," Mike Beasley said from the rail. Well, close enough.
