That was quick.

Moments after doubling through Danny Chang, the man playing hooky from work just sent nearly chip in his stack back to his neighbor.

Chang held the {2-Spades}{9-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{a-Spades} while the mystery man had the {9-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{k-Hearts}{8-Clubs}. Both players found premium pocket pairs, but Chang's aces held to cripple the other player when the board came down {5-Spades}{10-Hearts}{4-Spades}{8-Clubs}{a-Clubs}.

Mystery man tripled his microstack up on the next hand though, moving all in blind and winning with two pair. On the next deal, he made a flush on the river to double up again, storming back from under three big blinds to keep himself in contention.
