Lucky Chewy Doubles Up

Level 3 : 50/100, 0 ante

We came to the table as Andrew Lichtenberger, known better as "luckychewy", his online handle, was all in preflop and had been called. The two players flipped up their cards, and Lichtenberger had the lead.

Lichtenberger: {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}
Opponent: {k-Spades}{j-Diamonds}

The flop was a pretty one for Lichtenberger as it came out {4-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{a-Spades}. The turn and river came the {2-Clubs} and {3-Hearts}, and Lichtenberger doubled up to 8300. The player to Lichtenberger's left sat down while the chips were being pushed to him, and joked "That's just what I want to see when I sit back down: Chewy doubling up." Yes unfortunately for the rest of his table, Chewy is still alive and has some chips to work with now.
