Duek Doubles Up
Level 18
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
It folded to Michael Duek in the small blind, who raised to 150,000. Duek only had 120,00 behind, and was put all in by Alex Foxen in the big blind. Duek made a quick call, revealing the cards.
Michael Duek: A♦K♥9♦7♣ 
Alex Foxen: A♣Q♥9♥6♦
Foxen flopped a flush draw on 5♥3♦A♥ for some extra outs. The 8♠ turn removed some outs for Foxen as a six would make Duek a straight, and the 3♣ river saw Duek's ace-king hold for a double-up.
"Go back to your tables, nits!" Duek yelled to the gathered onlookers as he stacked up his chips.
