Tian Doubles Through Phillips

Level 23 : 15,000/30,000, 5,000 ante

James Tian found a perfect scenario when he was starting to get short-stacked and facing a raise in the big blind. He looked down and saw {A-Hearts}{A-Clubs} and moved all in for 542,000. Samuel Phillips was the initial raiser from the small blind, and called with pocket nines.

The board ran out {10-Clubs}{3-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{k-Spades}, and Tian was able to get a full double-up through Phillips.
