Dumonski Doubles DeMichele

Mike DeMichele was down to about 65,000 before he got in a big hand with Mark Dumonski. There were a few preflop raises we missed, but when we got to the table, DeMichele had shoved the rest of his stack in, worth about 41,000, and Dumonski was in the tank. There was already about 40,000 in the pot, and Dumonski decided that the pot odds were too good to pass up on, and made the call.

DeMichele: {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}
Dumonski: {k-Spades}{9-Spades}

The flop made DeMichele's hand even stronger when it came {5-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{4-Hearts}. Dumonski would now need a non-heart King, but he wouldn't get it on the turn, the {6-Spades}, or the river, the {6-Diamonds}. DeMichele took the hand, and got a much needed double up.
