Pat Scanlon Doubles Up... Again

Over at the featured TV table, Pat Scanlon has come from behind once again to double up against a big stack. A few hands ago, he doubled up against Gus Hansen. His latest victim was Magnus Persson.

I caught the action on the flop of {8-Hearts}{5-Spades}{2-Hearts}. There was about 30,000 in the three-way pot. Scanlon checked, Matthew McCullough checked, and Magnus Persson bet 19,500. Sacnlon check-raised all in for about 140,000. Matthew McCullough folded and Persson called.

Persson: {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}
Scanlon: {5-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}

Scanlon was ahead with a set. The turn was the {J-Diamonds} and the river was the {3-Hearts}. Scanlon doubled up and increased his stack to 300,000. Persson slipped to 170,000.
