Le Doubles
Level 12
: 800/1,600, 200 ante
Nam Le opened to 3,400 and got reraised by Wade Townsend in the big blind to 8,200. Le pondered for a little bit, and then shoved all in for a total of 36,300. Townsend made the call, and soon found out he had some catching up to do.
Townsend: 
Le: 
The 
flop gave both players top pair, and both would make it two pair with the running deuces (
and 
). Le's kicker played, double up for the player who won the 2006 Bay 101 Shooting Star for $1,198,300.
