Resurrection Redux

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Just before the recent break we watched Elia Ahmadian double up to push his stack up above the 230,000 mark - but according to Ahmadian and his tablemate John Hall, he had recently risen from the dead.

Ahmadian had previously owned a big stack of about 360,000, but he was nailed to the cross when his was run down by when a ten hit the board.

That loss had sent Ahmadian to the brink with just 23,000 left to his name, but he then got the last of it in with and found no less than four callers. Facing yet again - in addition to a motley crew of competing hands - Ahmadian made two pair on the river after flopping an ace, with fifth street falling .

On the very next deal, sitting in the big blind, Ahmadian watched the action fold around to the small blind, and that player shove all in for 115,000 effective. With in the hole Ahmadian's decision was easy enough, and the final board rolled out to bring him all the way back from the dead on a day dedicated to the original master of that very same feat.
