Another Double For Stockfish
Level 20
: 5,000/10,000, 2,500 ante
No-Limit 5 Card Draw
Kenneth Fitzgerald opened with a raise to 20,000. Action folded around to Jason Stockfish in the big blind who put in a raise to what looked like 55,000. With action back to Fitzgerald, he moved all in. Stockfish immediately called.
Fitzgerald, thinking it was already over turned up his cards, then quickly turned them back face down.
"Pat," Stockfish said having seen Fitzgerald's cards.
Fitzgerald then threw away two and revealed his 
for everyone to see. Stockfish had 
for a straight. Fitzgerald received a 
and an 
and that would seal the double up for Stockfish.
"I was card dead for two and a half hours," Stockfish said. "That's the worst I've ever been card dead."
