Outhred Doubles Up Carlton
Level 10
: 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Alex Outhred had been running smoothly most of the day, but has taken a small hit near the end of the night.
As told by Outhred, he raised to 5,500 on the button and was three-bet all in by Donny Carlton in the small blind for 43,000. Outhred called and was in good shape to start.
Donny Carlton: 
Alex Outhred: 
The flop was even better for Outhred, giving him a set on 
, but Carlton still had a backdoor flush draw, which came home with the rest of the 
runout, to give him a chance of surviving the night and making Day 3.
