Henderson Spikes a Ten; Doubles

Vladimir Mefodichev raised to 160,000 preflop and Hugh Henderson called from the big blind. The flop was {A-Clubs}{2-Spades}{J-Diamonds} and Henderson open-shoved all in for 1,200,000. Mefodichev called and quickly found out he was ahead.

Mefodichev: {A-Spades}{3-Diamonds}
Henderson: {J-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}

The turn brought disaster for Mefodichev, however, when the {10-Hearts} came giving Henderson two pair. The {9-Clubs} came on fifth street and Henderson was able to spike a double up.

Mefodichev is still our commanding chip leader with 7,800,000.
