Jeffrey Doubes in Dramatic Race

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 0 ante

We found Dennis Jeffrey all in and at risk before the flop holding {Q-Clubs}{Q-Spades} against Nicolas Halvorson's {A-Hearts}{k-Hearts}.

The flop came down {6-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}, keeping Jeffrey's queens in the lead. Halvorson still had a ton of outs, though, with hearts to make a flush or pairing either of his hole cards.

The board paired with the {6-Spades} on the turn. The dealer delivered a heart on the river, allowing Halvorson to pump his fist as he made his flush. The river, however, was the {Q-Hearts}, giving Jeffrey queens full of sixes and the best hand. Jeffrey was able to double to about 68,000.
