Joe Bartholdi Doubles Up

Joe Bartholdi
Joe Bartholdi
Joe Bartholdi doubled up after moving in two hands in a row. On the first hand, he pushed from the big blind after two players limped in. He got no action and picked up the pot. The next hand he pushed from the small blind and got called by a player holding {A-?} {J-?}. Bartholdi was slightly behind with {Q-?} {9-?}, but came out ahead when the board came {J-Clubs} {8-Clubs} {8-Spades} {10-Hearts} {K-Diamonds}. Bartholdi is now back to where he started with 3,000 chips.
