Senie Doubles Through Owen

We arrived at the table and found a board of {8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{4-Hearts} and 7,800 in the pot.

Brian Senie was faced with a decision of 5,000 chips from Steven Owen and after about two minutes, Senie popped it to 13,000. Owen didn't seem to mind, re-raising an additional 15,000 on top. Senie called all in for about 13,500 and showed {5-Spades}{4-Diamonds}. His call was a risky one, but his read was spot on as Owen showed {A-Spades}{A-Hearts}.

The river was the {Q-Spades}, securing the double for Senie.
