Pocket Rockets Propel Borenstein to a Double; Himpele on the Comeback Trail

Level 13 : 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante
Jon Borenstein
Jon Borenstein

Jon Borenstein opened for 6,000 under the gun and Joey "Mush" Galazzo called two spots over. Don Himpele then moved all in for around 70,000 from the cutoff and action folded back to Borenstein, who called off for 63,000. Galazzo got out of the way and the hands were turned up.

Jon Borenstein: {a-Diamonds}{a-Spades}
Don Himpele: {j-Spades}{j-Hearts}

The board ran out {8-Hearts}{6-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{k-Hearts} and Borenstein shipped the double.

Himpele was left with crumbs, but he managed to double, then triple to get himself back up to a manageable stack. Could a comeback be in store? If there is, it'll happen at a different table as Table 43 broke shortly after these happenings.
