Tom McCormick Doubles Up, Busts Shortly After

Level 14 : 2,000/4,000, 0 ante

With one of the shortest stacks in the room, Tom McCormick made his stand with {A-Clubs}{5-Spades}, getting his last 7,700 in before the flop.

McCormick was called by a player holding {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}, and although he was trailing heading to the flop, the {a-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} put him in the lead. The turn ({k-Clubs}) and river ({3-Diamonds}) kept him in front, and McCormick survived to give himself a shot at the cash.

Despite this brief comeback, however, McCormick was eliminated in 39th place a few hands later.
