Two More Doubles

PLO

In that last hand we saw two short stacks both double, much to the frustration of the other 62 players.

In one of the hands, Eugene Du Plessis raised to 2,700 on the button only to have Stephen Chidwick three-bet to 10,600 from the big blind. Eventually the money got all in with Chidwick at risk.

Chidwick: {A-Spades}{J-Diamonds}{J-Spades}{K-Diamonds}
Du Plessis: {A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}{A-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}

Chidwick was behind, that is until the flop came down {J-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{5-Spades}. Chidwick hit a set to take the lead, which he held as both the {7-Hearts} and {2-Clubs} blanked on the turn and river.
