Pinkussohn Doubles Through Pulford

Action was on the short stack Jay Pinkussohn in middle position, and he open shoved all in for his last 56,500. It folded to Ray Pulford in the cutoff, and he made the call. Everyone else folded, and when the cards were flipped, Pinkussohn saw that he was in front.

Pinkussohn: {a-Hearts}{10-Spades}
Pulford: {k-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}

The flop came down {9-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}, and Pinkussohn was still in front. The {5-Diamonds} gave Pulford more outs, as a diamond would also give him a win, in addition to the king or the queen. However, the {8-Clubs} on the river was safe for Pinkussohn, who doubled back up to over 110,000.
