Double, Not Bubble

Issac Haxton moved in under the gun for his last 16,900 and was called by the player in the big blind. Haxton then learned that his {9-Diamonds} {9-Clubs} were way behind his opponent's {Q-Diamonds} {Q-Hearts}. The flop came {5-Clubs} {7-Spades} {6-Diamonds}, the turn was the {4-Diamonds}, and just when it looked like Haxton's night would come to an end the {9-Spades} spiked on the river to give him the pot. He's now up to 36,000.
