Level 3 : 150/300, 0 ante

It's not been a good Day 1d for Todd Terry, as can clearly be ascertained from a browse through his Twitter feed.

It's possible things are about to take a turn for the better, though, as Terry has just found his first double-up. It began with a player to his right opening to 575, and Terry jammed his last 6,225 chips into the middle. His opponent tanked and called, and the two men were flipping for the pot.

Showdown
Terry: {10-Spades} {10-Diamonds}
Opponent: {A-Diamonds} {J-Spades}

When the dealer burned and turned, the {J-Clubs} appeared right in the window, but the full flop was much better for Terry. It came {10-Clubs} {5-Diamonds} to give Terry a big lead with two to come, and the turn {4-Diamonds} secured his double-up. The river {A-Clubs} was too little, too late for Mr. Opponent, and he's pushed Terry back into contention with 12,900 after that double-dip.
