Joy Winter Doubles and Doubles

[user37786]

Joy Winter (mom to PokerNews' own Jennifer Winter) raised to 1,000 and had the big blind reraise all in for 7,500. Joy called and showed down {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs}, DOMINATING her opponent's {A-Spades}{J-Clubs}. The board didn't help either player and that built Joy's stack up to 6,500.

Which she nearly doubled again a few hands later when, holding K-Q, she made two pair on the flop and came moved all in against an opponent who took a stab at the pot. That win helped boost Joy's stack up to 11,000.

Tom McEvoy ended up all in against two other players. He held pocket tens, the other two held {K-Hearts}{J-Hearts} and {A-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}. The flop of {2-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{K-Spades} gave McEvoy a set and the {10-Clubs} on the river gave him quads. That pushed McEvoy's stack up to 10,500.

We are fortunate to have three past WSOP Main Event winners in the field here today, and all three of them have already outlasted 85 percent of the 1,882-player field!
