Easy Double Up for Carson

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 100 ante
Russell Carson
Russell Carson

Russell Carson was very short-stacked when we found him all in with {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts}; this is the only explanation we can think of for him being up against {8-Hearts}{9-Spades}.

Board: {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{k-Spades}{3-Diamonds}

Carson doubled to 18,700. We're not actually terribly sure who was holding the {8-Hearts}{9-Spades} as all the chips were already in the middle when we got there, but by the look on his face and the mere 15,000 in his stack, we suspect it might have been Jude Ainsworth.
