The Man With the Long Name

Hold'em -

Kory Mitchell gets it going with a raise from the cutoff seat. In the small blind, Martel De La Chesnaye reraises all in, and Mitchell makes the call, turning up {K-Hearts} {Q-Clubs}. De La Chesnaye is in danger but ahead with his {9-Hearts} {9-Spades}.

He watches with eagerness as the dealer deals out the board: {3-Clubs} {6-Diamonds} {6-Hearts} {7-Spades} {J-Hearts}. Safe all the way, and he survives and doubles up to 49,000.
