Marco Johnson More Than Doubles

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 0 ante

Start-of-day chip leader Millard Hale opened to 28,000 and Michael Gross called on the button. Marco Johnson, who came back with the shortest stack, was in the small blind and moved all in for 63,000 total. Hale quickly called but Gross mumbled something about being behind and laid his hand down to leave dead money for the heads-up race.

Johnson: {A-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{2-Clubs}
Hale: {A-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}{7-Clubs}

The flop {3-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{6-Hearts} brought a set for Johnson while Hale hoped for some help on the following street. The turn {K-Hearts} improved Hale's draw to a double-belly, but he failed to complete his straight draw on the {J-Spades} river.

Johnson scored nearly a triple-up, vaulting to 166,000.
