A Pair of Doubles

In Level 31 with blinds of 25,000/50,000 and an ante of 6,250,

Hand #1: "joey1way" opened to 121,000 in the cutoff and "Gohednpopoff" called on the button. "Stonniepokes" three-bet jammedf or 738,000 in the small blind and "joey1way" gave action.

"Stonniepokes": {a-Spades}{q-Diamonds}
"joey1way": {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}

"Stonniepokes" needed to hit to stay alive and did so on the flop {3-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{q-Clubs}. They improved further on the turn {a-Clubs}, but in doing so also increased the number of outs they needed to fade from two to 11. It all worked out as the river came {5-Spades} and "Stonniepokes" held to secure the double.

Hand #2: Two hands later, "joey1way" jammed for 672,000 under the gun and "Gohednpopoff" called in the hijack. All remaining players folded.

"joey1way": {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}
"Gohednpopoff": {7-Clubs}{7-Hearts}

It appeared as if "joey1way" would be on the wrong end of two consecutive coin flips as the flop {4-Spades}{j-Spades}{4-Clubs} appeared. However, they backed into Broadway as the turn {10-Spades} and river {q-Spades} completed the runout and they found a double of their own to get back to 1.45 million.
