Champ: Duong Doubles, then Doubles Aglialoro

$2,500 + $200 Championship Deep Stack NLH  

Level 21:  Blinds 5k/10k with 1k ante.

Mike Melkersen opened for 20k from the cutoff.  Then Jackduyph Duong shoved from the big blind for 201k.

Mike called, showing pocket 9s.  Duong had A4 suited and needed help to survive.

He got it, big time, when the board ran out A 8 8 A 3 giving him Aces-full.  Duong doubled up to ~410k.  Mike was left with ~220k.

Duong didn't hold onto those chips for long.

On a flop of A 7 2 with two clubs, John Aglialoro (sb) was all-in and called by Duong (button).  John had A8 of clubs for top pair with flush draw.  Duong had K7 of diamonds for middle pair.

The last two came 6 3 and the river was a club, improving John's hand to a flush.  He doubled up to ~500k.

Duong was left with ~145k.

24 players remain.  Average stack is 381k.
