George Doubles as End of Day Approaches

Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Action folded to a player in late position who looked at the stacks of the four people left to act behind him and announced raise then moved 200,000 into the middle.

Action folded to Pat George in the small blind who thought briefly before deciding to call off the rest of his chips facing the raise. The big blind folded and George was at risk and headed to a runout against the late position player.

Pat George: A9
Late Position: AJ

The flop came 984, catapulting George to the lead with a turn and to sweat, but when the turn and river came the K and 3, George held on to catch a full double with only 20 or so minutes left in the day.
