Edwards Gets Lucky to Double

Level 6 : 400/800, 800 ante

Charles Edwards checked a {4-Clubs}{6-Spades}{k-Spades} flop from the big blind over to Kevin Cronin in middle position, who put out a bet of 4,300. Edwards check-raised to 10,000, and Cronin three-bet shoved to put Edwards in for his last 24,400, and Edwards called it off.

Charles Edwards: {k-Diamonds}{9-Spades}
Kevin Cronin: {a-}{k-}

"I was afraid of that," Edwards said.

The {9-Diamonds} turn sent a jolt through the table, and Edwards' turned two pair held for the double after the {6-Clubs} river failed to provide an ace for Cronin.

"I needed that...short stack desperation!" Edwards said.
