Lee Childs Doubles, Then Finds Life

Level 4 : 100/200, 0 ante

Just 20 minutes ago Lee Childs was down to just 4050 chips and almost out the door. Now he's up over 20,000. We caught his first double up that helped propel him to where he is now.

Preflop Childs raised to 400. The player on the button made a reraise to 900. Action folded back around to Childs who moved all in. He was called quickly by the player on the button.

Childs: {A-Hearts}{K-Clubs}
Button: {J-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}

The flop was no help for Childs, as it fell {8-Spades}{10-Spades}{7-Diamonds}. The {7-Diamonds} turn wasn't any help either. Childs was just about ready to go when he binked the {K-Hearts} on the river, giving him a better pair than his opponent.

Childs must've found some room to play as he has more than doubled since then.
