Marcum Doubles Through Young

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Dennis Marcum opened for 40,000 from the cutoff and Jordan Young, in the big blind, asked how much Marcum had behind. Marcum replied that he had 80ish and Young put out a big stack of green 25,000 chips to put Marcum all in. Marcum called and the hands were talbed.

Showdown:
Marcum: {A-Spades} {K-Hearts}
Young: {A-Diamonds} {8-Diamonds}

Board: {K-Clubs} {9-Spades} {9-Hearts} {A-Hearts} {6-Hearts}

Marcum's two-pair doubled up his short stack to 260,000 and Young is still safe with around one million.
