Clark Races to the Double

Level 19 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

In early position, Chris Clark opened with a shove for his last 65,000. A couple seats over, a younger player in a bright blue hoodie reraised all in for just less than 100,000 total. The rest of the table folded, and the race was on.

Showdown
Clark: {J-Clubs} {J-Diamonds}
Mr. Blue Hoodie: {A-Diamonds} {K-Diamonds}

Clark looked pretty confident in his chances, and he'd like the flop a great deal. It came {4-Diamonds} {4-Spades} {J-Spades} to all but end the hand right there, and the turn {2-Hearts} left his opponent drawing dead.

It's a big double for Clark, moving him back into contention with just over 140,000. For Mr. Blue Hoodie, it's a crippling blow to knock him back down to about 30,000.
