Ben Savage Doubles Up

Ben Savage has doubled back up to 35,000.

Savage shoved the last of his tiny stack with {Q-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} and Angelo Prifti called from the big blind with {A-Hearts}{j-Hearts}.

The {k-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{8-Clubs} flop looked set to send Savage to the rail, but he paired up on the {10-Diamonds} turn to save himself. The {8-Hearts} hit the river.

It looks to only be a momentary reprieve as he still horribly short-stacked.
