DeBora Doubles Again. And Again!

Greg DeBora was back down to 20,000 when he got it in with {A-Diamonds} {7-Hearts}. Michael Mizrachi looked him up with {Q-Diamonds} {9-Diamonds}, and DeBora was fighting for his tournament survival.

The flop was a disastrous {Q-Spades} {K-Diamonds} {3-Spades}, but the turn {A-Hearts} pulled DeBora back into the lead. The {5-Diamonds} on the river secured his double up, and he was back to 40,000 just like that.

A few hands later...

Matt Keikoan raised before the flop, and DeBora called to see the dealer put out {K-Spades} {7-Hearts} {8-Clubs}. DeBora got his chips in again by calling Keikoan's three-bet raise, and the news was not good:

DeBora: {10-Clubs} {7-Clubs}
Keikoan: {K-Diamonds} {6-Spades}

DeBora was behind with bottom pair, but things turned around in a hurry on the {7-Spades} turn. That gave him trips and a hammer lock on the pot, and the {A-Diamonds} on the river secured his second double up within the orbit. DeBora is back up to 70,000 or so, and now it is Keikoan riding the dangerously short stack of just 40,000.
