"Short-Stack Queen" Thompson Spikes Double Up on the River

Level 9 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Jolyne Thompson, the self-proclaimed "short-stack queen", open-jammed her final 24,500 from middle position and was called by the cutoff. The rest of the table folded.

Jolyne Thompson: {a-Hearts}{10-Clubs}
Cutoff: {k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}

The flop came {j-Clubs}{4-Spades}{k-Clubs}, giving the cutoff top set and Thompson would need either running clubs, running aces, or a queen for a straight.

Thompson would pick up a ton of outs when the {a-Clubs} came on the turn.

The {q-Spades} came on the river, leading to many oohs and ahhs on the table and even a half-hearted apology from Thompson.

Thompson is now back close to starting stack.
