Duong Gets Short Again, Then Doubles

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 300 ante

We only caught the tail end of the first hand but it put Thin Tin Duong right back on life support. With the board reading {7-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{8-Clubs}{9-Hearts} and over 20,000 in blinds and antes in the pot already Keisuke Hikosaka checked the action from the small blind and it was on Duong.

The Hong Kong player bet out 6,000, leaving himself just 12,000 behind and it did not take Hikosaka long to make the call. Duong turned over {10-Spades}{7-Spades} for second pair, but this not enough to beat Hikosaka��s {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} and he scooped the sizable pot while Duong found himself circling the drain.

Duong��s chips found their way into the middle of the table on the very next orbit �C which does not take too long to come round when you are only five-handed.

Yao Jin Chen opened the action with a middle position raise to 4,000 and Duong committed the last of his chips from the small blind. Hikosaka folded out the big blind and Chen made the call.

Yao Jin Chen: {a-Clubs}{10-Spades}
Thin Tin Duong: {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}

It was Duong��s turn to have a go with the red tens, and they worked out as well for him as the did for Hikosaka previously with the board running out {q-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{5-Hearts} to grant Duong the much needed double, though he is still the short stack.
