Xu Doubles Through Markholt

Level 19 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Lee Markholt raised on the button to 27,000. Jiandog Xu was in the small blind and he moved all in for 51,000. Action folded back to Markholt who called.

Lee Markholt: {9-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}
Jiandog Xu: {K-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}

The board ran out {J-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{A-Spades} which flopped a straight draw for Markholt, but it was Xu who ended up with the straight to double up.

Meanwhile, on a nearby table, Sean Eichendorf just lost the last of his stack to be sent to the rail.
