Martin Finger Doubles

Level 7 : 250/500, 75 ante

Martin Finger registered late for flight 1E and he stopped to grab some food as he strolled in. Finger also got a timely double up after he flopped a set of queens on a {Q-Spades}{10-Clubs}{5-Spades} board vs the flush draw {A-Spades}{8-Spades} of his opponent. The board ran out the {J-Diamonds} and {7-Clubs} and Finger was able to avoid a spade.

Finger stacked his chips and continued eating his lunch, while another player on the table said to him, "You know how to do it! Just register late for the tournament and then double up. I've been doing it all wrong sitting here since 10:00 a.m."
