Johnston Doubles Through Garrett

Brad Garrett has had a pretty good day so far, upping his starting stack of 46,000 all the way up to 120,000, but he has just taken a big hit thanks to former Main Event Champion Berry Johnston. We missed the preflop action, but Johnston got all of his money in preflop with {k-Clubs}{k-Hearts}, which had Garrett's {q-Diamonds}{q-Clubs} crushed.

Garrett started to chant, "Lady in the window!" as the flop was being dealt out, but unforunately for Garrett, it came out {j-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{j-Clubs}. The turn came the {2-Hearts}, and Garrett was drawing very thin. The {9-Hearts} hit the river, and Johnston scored the double up, meaning that Garrett and Johnston virtually traded stack sizes.
