Andy Griggs has just doubled up to 57,000. He was heads up with an opponent and the flop was out as {8-Hearts} {2-Hearts} {J-Spades} before all the chips went in.

Griggs had {A-Diamonds} {A-Spades} to his opponent's {J-Clubs} {Q-Clubs}. The aces held and Griggs is up to 57,000.

According to Lara Miller on the rail, this is Griggs's first live tournament. He is best known as a Country and Western singer who sang us in the first two days of play at this years Main Event.

He's got the backing of the team at Doyle's Room, though. They've spent the last week giving him pointers and specific instructions to follow. Seems to be working okay for now.
