Mendoza Doubles With a Boat
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
James Mendoza got all of his 33,000 chips into the middle preflop, with Michal Schuh trying to bust him.
James Mendoza: A♥A♣Q♠9♣ 
Michal Schuh: A♠K♦J♠9♥
Mendoza had aces, and Schuh was going to need some help from the dealer to crack them. However, the runout of 10♦5♠2♠Q♣Q♥ gave Mendoza a boat, earning him the much-needed double-up.
