Doodson Left With a Chip and a Chair

Level 15 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

In the penultimate hand of the night, Michael Doodson and Matthew White got their stacks in with White at risk.

Matthew White: {q-Hearts}{8-Clubs}
Michael Doodson: {2-Clubs}{2-Hearts}

The board came {8-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{a-Clubs} and White doubled.

Doodson went all in blind the next hand and faced White once more.

Michael Doodson: {6-Spades}{4-Diamonds}
Matthew White: {q-Clubs}{j-Clubs}

On a board of {q-Spades}{9-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{a-Hearts}{6-Clubs}, Doodson rivered two pair to bag a miracle stack for Day 2. "Oh come on man, I have to work," he bemoaned the outcome of the hand. Whether or not he will show up in time for the restart remains to be seen.
