Pacheco Gets Short then Doubles
Level 11
: Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Charles Pacheco raised from the button to 13,000 before Ryan Christopherson three-bet from the small blind to 35,000. The big blind got out of the way, and Pachecho called.
The flop J♦9♠2♠ saw Christopherson continue for 50,000, covering Pacheco's stack. Pacheco folded, leaving himself 34,000 behind.
The very next hand, Pacheco raised again to 13,000, and this time it was Haxton's turn to three-bet from the small blind. His raise was enough to set Pacheco all-in, and Pacheco called.
Charles Pacheco: A♦A♠4♦3♠ 
Isaac Haxton: A♥Q♥Q♦6♠
The case ace arrived on the 8♠K♣A♣ flop, improving Pacheco to top set.
The turn 10♣ and river 2♥ didn't change the outcome, and Pacheco doubled up.
