Doyle Runs into Ashby's Aces

Doyle Brunson
Doyle Brunson

No-Limit Hold'em

We just heard that Richard Ashby managed to double his stack to the expense of Doyle Brunson.

In a blind battle all the chips went in, and Ashby showed {A-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}. Brunson turned over {A-Spades}{Q-Spades} and couldn't catch up as the board ran out {9-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{8-Clubs}{5-Clubs}.

Brunson is knocked back down to 88,000 while Ashby is right around starting stack.
