The Boy Done Thurgood

A brief raising war - very brief actually, because Mark Thurgood only had around 40,000 left - resulted in a preflop showdown.

Thurgood: {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts}
Hoyt Corkins: {q-Hearts}{10-Hearts}

"I'll lose now, watch," said Thurgood to his cheering railers. But he didn't.

Board: {8-Spades}{8-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{j-Spades}{2-Hearts}

Thurgood stayed in the game on around 85,000.

Corkins, now sucking on an unlit cigar, was left with 170,000
