Ta Fades a Massive Sweat to Double

Level 13 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

A raise by Luc Thong Ta was met by the all in of the player on the button and once the action was back on Ta, he verified with the dealer that it was indeed an all in before snap-calling.

Ta tabled {A-Clubs}{A-Diamonds} and his opponent only had the {K-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}. The flop of {8-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{6-Hearts} was as dreadful as it could get, but Ta somehow faded a ton of outs with the {3-Spades} turn and {7-Diamonds} river to double.

"I could have busted you, but now you are back," Phil Hellmuth in the two seat said and Ta replied "I was back all the time." Right after, Kristen Bicknell arrived in the four seat with an above-average stack.
