Wainer Hits a Straight Flush to Double

Level 2 : 200/300, 300 ante

Paul Wainer was just on the lucky end of a massive cooler to double up.

According to Wainer, who took a picture of the {8-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} board, his opponent had {q-Hearts}{q-Spades} for queens full. Wainer, though, had {k-Clubs}{10-Clubs} for the straight flush with all his chips in the middle.

"It's been a pretty cool experience," Wainer, who has just $10,950 in career earnings, said about his time in the Main Event so far.
