Duranleau Squeezes and Holds

Level 12 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

Jesse Mason opened with a raise to 5,500 in middle position and action folded around to the small blind where Michael O'Grady called. Pierre Duranleau was in the big blind and he squeezed all in, shoving for 46,200. Mason folded after giving it a few seconds of thought. O'Grady didn't let go right away though. He asked for an exact count, then called, putting Duranleau at risk.

Michael O'Grady: {A-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}
Pierre Duranleua: {J-Hearts}{J-Clubs}

The board of {6-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{2-Clubs} was safe for Duranleau the whole way, not providing much of a sweat, so he doubled to around 100,000 while O'Grady took a hit and dropped to about 155,000 chips.
