Just shortly after the dinner break, two notable players doubled up to stay alive.

Mark Walsh shoved all in holding ace king and got called by an opponent holding pocket queens.  Luckily for Walsh, he spiked a king on the river to double.

Andrew Lauer also doubled up right after returning from break.  According to Lauer, a player in early position min raised, and a player in middle position re-raised to 9,000.  It folded to Lauer in the small blind who started the hand with 14,500 and he looked down at pocket jacks.  Lauer shoved all in, the player under the gun folded, and the player in middle position called holding pocket queens.

The flop came Q9♣4♠, giving Lauer's opponent a set of queens, but that didn't scare him in the least. "I feel like I've still got this," Lauer said.

His prediction came true, when the K turn and 10 river gave him a straight to double and stay alive.

Mark Walsh - 45,000
Andrew Lauer - 38,000
