Saul Finds Fortunate Double

Kevin Saul has just found a fortunate double up in a battle of the blinds. After the small blind completed, Saul moved all in for his last chips from the big blind with {A-Diamonds}{9-Spades} but the small blind made the call and tabled a dominant {A-Hearts}{10-Clubs}.

The board was spread {5-Spades}{6-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{8-Spades}{7-Hearts} and Saul makes a straight to the nine to double up.

"I run pretty good..." he chuckled as he stacked up 6,000 in chips.
