Cloutier Finds a Spot to Double Up

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 0 ante

Lance Howard raised to 16,000 from middle position, and TJ Cloutier three-bet to 60,000 from the button. The blinds folded, and Howard raised the pot. Cloutier quickly stuck the rest of his chips in the middle for a total of 242,000 and was the one at risk.

Cloutier: {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{10-Spades}
Howard: {k-Spades}{k-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{8-Spades}

Cloutier was in the lead, and the board ran out {a-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{2-Spades}. Cloutier held onto the lead to earn a double-up. It also left Howard extremely short with around five big blinds.
