Doubling Dags

John D'Agostino

John D'Agostino was tangled up in a pot for his tournament life, heads up with Bill Chen. On a flop of {Q-Clubs} {J-Hearts} {9-Diamonds}, D'Agostino got the rest of his ~20,000 chips into the middle, and Chen looked him up.

Showdown
D'Agostino: {A-Spades} {2-Spades} {8-Diamonds} {10-Diamonds}
Chen: {K-Diamonds} {Q-Spades} {J-Clubs} {3-Spades}

Dags had flopped the straight but he wasn't out of the woods just yet. The turn was a blank {5-Clubs}, and the river was safe too as the {A-Hearts} filled out the board. With his scoop, D'Agostino has doubled up and then some, sitting now on 43,500 chips.
