Movin' On Up

Raymond Rahme doesn't have to be too concerned about his earlier gaffe of mucking the winning hand at showdown. He just doubled up from 16,000 to 32,000 when he flopped a set of fours and his opponent turned top two pair, aces and tens. Rahme bet 400 on the turn into a pot of 1,200. His opponent raised to 2,000. Rahme reraised to 4,000 and his opponent moved all in. Rahme made the call and dodged the remaining aces and tens when the river fell {J-Spades}.
