Back-to-Back Doubles for Brad "MrMonkeyBear" Owen

Level 4 : 50/100, 0 ante
Brad Owen
Brad Owen

Upon coming back from the break, Brad "MrMonkeyBear" Owen had just 882 in his stack. He's got nearly five times that now thanks to back-to-back doubles.

In the first, Owen cracked pocket kings with queen-five offsuit by rivering trip fives.

In the very next hand, "2DaRiverWeGo" raised to 300 from the hijack and Thomas "Yenowine" Yenowine called from the button. Owen then three-bet jammed for 1,914 from the small blind, "2DaRiverWeGo" called, and Yenowine got out of the way.

"2DaRiverWeGo": {7-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}
Brad "MrMonkeyBear" Owen: {k-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}

It was a flip and Owen pulled ahead on the {j-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} flop. Neither the {a-Hearts} turn nor {j-Spades} river changed a thing and just like that Owen chipped up to 4,228. Still short, but he's spinning.

BrandonTemple

Level 4 : 50/100, 0 ante

Donna "dd817" DiCrescento raised to 287 from middle position, and James "Meatsweats" Carroll called in the cutoff. Arkadi "Stupidaxpeh" Onikoul three-bet to 1,248 from the small blind, and both DiCrescento and Carroll called.

Onikoul bet 1,277 on a {2-Hearts}{10-Spades}{6-Spades} flop, and DiCrescento raised to 4,476. After Carroll folded, Onikoul three-bet shoved, and DiCrescento called off her 14,388 stack.

Donna "db817" DiCrescento: {k-Spades}{5-Spades}
Arkadi "Stupidaxpeh" Onikoul: {k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}

DiCrescento couldn't spike a spade on the {9-Clubs} turn or {7-Clubs} river, and she utilized her re-entry option to gain a fresh stack of 20,000 chips.
