Henson with Another Double

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Despite Matthew Henson's early double up, he was still our short stack. But no more.

Henson opened the action with a raise to 27,000 before Andrea Dato three bet to 65,000. The rest of the players folded and Henson made the call.

The flop came {J-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} and Henson checked to the aggressor Dato who bet 72,000. Henson moved all in for his last 170,000 and Dato decided to call. Henson held the {j-Clubs}{9-Clubs} for top pair and had to dodge the flush draw and over card of Dato's {A-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}.

The turn was the {9-Hearts} which took away four of Dato's outs. He now needed any non-nine diamond. The river bricked off with the {10-Hearts} and Henson has now found himself with a 600,000 stack.
