Phil Gordon Doubles Up Through Noah Boeken

After Noah Boeken made it 1,600 to go under the gun Phil Gordon re-raised for the last of his 5,600 chips. Boeken called with {A-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds} and led Gordon's {K-Hearts}{3-Spades}. But Gordon made a pair on the {10-Spades}{5-Hearts}{3-Hearts} flop and hit the {K-Clubs} on the turn to double his stack up to 12,500. Boeken fell to 16,500.

After the hand, Gordon (already standing and visibly fired-up) commented that Noah had been picking on his blind all day and he had to make a stand. Neither player looked particularly pleased with the other's play as the pot was pushed to Gordon.
