Thomas’s Lucky Table
Nível 20
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Tom Thomas arrived at his table with a very short stack, but was able to make it work for him quickly, with two double ups within just a few hands.
On the first hand, he got it in preflop against Dana Johnson.
Tom Thomas: KxKx
Dana Johnson: AxQx
The board Q♦J♠8♠4♦9♣ gave Johnson a pair of queens, but nothing more, and Thomas doubled up.
Just a couple of hands later, Thomas was again all in preflop, this time against Lisa Xie.
Tom Thomas: Q♦Q♣
Lisa Xie: J♠J♣
While some at the table were openly rooting for Xie’s jack, the board ran out 5♥3♦4♦10♥8♣ and Xie lost a big chunk of her stack, while Thomas got to double up again.
