Adams Doubles Up

Timothy Adams was faced with a tough decision, to call or not to call. After raising to 6,000 from early position, the big blind, Ralph Ratchford, moved all in. Calling would put Adams' tournament life at risk.

What did Adams do? He called and put his remaining 46,000 in the pot.

Showdown
Adams: {a-Spades}{10-Clubs}
Ratchford: {q-Hearts}{j-Hearts}

The flop paired Adams' 10 and he doubled up to 118,000. Ratchford saw his stack shrink to 115,000.
