Short Stack Doubles

Action folded to Yung Hwang on the button and he raised to 10,000. A short-stacked Jonathan Sorscher then moved all in from the small blind for 60,000, which Hwang called after the big blind folded.

Showdown

Sorscher{Q-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}
Hwang{A-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}

The ESPN cameras swarmed the table and the railbirds leaned in close; meanwhile, Sorscher had his eyes closed and declined to watch as the dealer ran out {3-Spades}{8-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{Q-Spades}. Sorscher's pair held and he doubled on the bubble.
