Canada's Morgan Doubles Up

Level 11 : 2,000/3,000, 3,000 ante

Action was picked up the flop of {j-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{7-Clubs} with James Morgan betting 12,000 on the button after being checked to. His opponent check-raised all in for 133,000 from the big blind. Morgan counted down his 85,000 stack and reluctantly made the call.

James Morgan: {a-Hearts}{j-Clubs}
Opponent: {q-Clubs}{j-Spades}

With much to his surprise he had his opponent dominated with a better kicker.

The turn {2-Spades} and river {5-Clubs} did not improve his opponent and Morgan found a full double-up.
