Ngo Doubles Up on River

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

After an open from under the gun to 3,300, Q Ngo jammed from the cutoff for 43,000. His only caller was the original aggressor, and the two were flipping.

Q Ngo: {q-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}
Opponent: {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}

Both players managed to connect on the {j-Spades}{k-Spades}{9-Spades} flop, as Ngo paired his jack but the opponent was still out in front with her set of nines. After the {4-Clubs} turn, Ngo was more than a 9:1 dog to stay alive in the tournament. Thankfully for him, the {10-Diamonds} on the river gave Ngo the king high straight, enough to bust his opponent's set and double his stack.
