Carroll Finds a Double Up

On the first hand back from the break, James Carroll was able to double up, helping him get back into contention. The money went in preflop, and when the cards were tabled, Carroll saw that he was in dominating shape.

Carroll: {a-Hearts}{j-Spades}
Opponent: {a-Clubs}{7-Hearts}

The flop came out {k-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}{3-Clubs}, giving Carroll's opponent outs for a chop. The turn came the {6-Diamonds}, and the river brought the {10-Spades}. Carroll secured the double up, but is still fairly short with less than 20 big blinds.
