Madsen Doubles

After four limps for 100, Jeff Madsen moved all in for 11,500. Two players folded and another moved all in over the top. The rest of the table mucked their hands and the two hands were tabled with Madsen's tournament life at risk.

Madsen: {9-Hearts}{9-Spades}
Opponent: {A-Spades}{8-Spades}

The flop fell {4-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{A-Clubs} giving Madsen's opponent a pair of aces. Fortunately for Madsen, the nine of clubs also gave him a set. The {8-Hearts} rolled off on the turn and the {Q-Hearts} completed the board, giving the 2006 World Series of Poker Player of the Year a much needed double up.
