Malherbe Doubles Through Haddox
Jean Malherbe was just all in for about 400,000 with 
and hoping his hand would hold versus the 
of Randy Haddox.
We arrived as the turn card was being dealt, at which point the board showed 
. Both players had pairs, though Malherbe's was the better one. The dealer then burned a card and delivered the 
river. "Ooooh," said Maddox, noting how the jack looked like a king at first. Malherbe survives with the double up, and the pair now have roughly even stacks.
