Carlile Doubles

Level 10 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

A short-stacked Simon Carlile earned a double up at the expense of a tablemate, getting the last of his chips in pre-flop with {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds} and was looked up by a player holding {q-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}.

The {7-Hearts}{a-Hearts}{q-Spades}{a-Spades}{10-Clubs} runout saw Carlile double to 45,000 and while this is still below average it takes the sting out of getting his pocket kings cracked by Zhi Ma an orbit or so earlier; Ma had open-shoved for around 46,000 with ace-five with the {a-Diamonds} and run out four to a flush to leave Carlile short.
