Steven Olson Doubles Up

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

A player in the hijack raised to 20,000, and Steven Olson three-bet all in for 141,000 from the small blind. His opponent called and showed {10-Clubs}{10-Spades}. Olson showed {j-Clubs}{j-Hearts}, and they held on a {q-Hearts}{a-Spades}{8-Spades}{3-Hearts}{3-Spades} runout.

Mansour Alipourfard had been moved to this table and piped up as Olson was gathering in his chips.

"You win a big pot, and then get the button," he said. "It's like a wedding and the honeymoon all at once!"
