Avery Doubles

Level 17 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

From early position, a player made it 10,000 to go. Action folded around to Christopher Avery who responded to that raise by pushing his stack all in. His opponent made the call and we were off to the races.

Avery: {9-Spades}{9-Clubs}
Opponent: {A-Hearts}{K-Clubs}

The board fell {10-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}{8-Spades}{8-Clubs} and Avery's nines were able to hold, doubling him up to around 150,000.
