Novotny Doubles; Sanders Takes from Tipton

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Over at Table 12, Karen Novotny got her stack of roughly 23,000 all in preflop against an opponent who had her covered by just 200.

Novotny: {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}
Opponent: {j-Hearts}{j-Clubs}

Novotny was well out in front, and stayed there as the board ran out a clean {a-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{q-Hearts}. Her opponent managed to double the next hand, but fell in the one after that.

Meanwhile at the same table, Michael Sanders was sitting with a mountain of chips and informed us he doubled through Chuck Tipton in the last hand before dinner. Tipton held kings, Sanders aces, and the rest was history.
