Tabb Doubles in Creative Fashion

Steven Tabb, sitting in the big blind, re-raised all in over the top of an open-raise by Russell Thomas. Thomas called with {k-Spades} {j-Hearts} and found himself up against Tabb's {9-Diamonds} {5-Diamonds}.

Whoops.

Never fear. This is hold'em, where any two cards can win. Sure enough, the board came {a-Spades} {3-Spades} {a-Hearts} {6-Diamonds} {9-Hearts} to pair up Tabb, but not Thomas. Thomas let out an expletive as Tabb's railbirds gave him some good-natured ribbing.

"Well played Tabb! Finally found the 9-5!"

Tabb is up to 234,000. Thomas has slipped back to 410,000.
