Black is Back

Andy Black and Ruben Visser have been engaged in good-natured banter all day, but their stacks have been moving in opposite directions since play began.

Down to his last 25,800 chips, Black shoved them in under the gun. Two seats over, Visser asked for a count before making the call. The table folded out of the way, and it was heads up for Black's tournament life.

Showdown
Black: {10-Diamonds} {10-Clubs}
Visser: {J-Spades} {J-Hearts}

The flop was both excellent and dreadful for the at-risk Black, coming {7-Hearts} {5-Hearts} {10-Hearts}. He'd flopped his set, but Visser pointed to his jack of hearts as he was now drawing live to the flush. That was no longer the case after the turn brought the {10-Spades}, filling in Black's quads and securing his double up. He's back up around 54,800 and back to smiling.
