"whatever" Doubles Before Break

"whatever"
"whatever"

In Level 25 with blinds of 14,000/28,000 and an ante of 3,500, a five-way limped pot brought about a flop of {j-Clubs}{3-Spades}{q-Spades}, with action checking around to "whatever," who was on the button. There was 157,500 in the middle and "whatever" made a pot-sized bet, prompting three folds to put action onto "Barrettwins," who was the last line of defense in the cutoff.

"Barrettwins" check-jammed for 461,000 effectively and "whatever" called all in.

"whatever": {q-Hearts}{10-Hearts}
"Barrettwins": {a-Spades}{8-Spades}

"whatever" needed to fade the remaining spades and aces in the deck to stay alive, and the turn {k-Diamonds} added two tens to the tally. It all proved to be for show, however, as the river {3-Diamonds} fell safely to give "whatever" the double.

Five players still remain as the tournament has reached a five-minute break. Here's an updated look at the chip counts.
