Good Karma in Poker?

Level 2 : 300/600, 75 ante

Earlier we reported that Amit Mahkija had been crippled when his aces fell to Victor Ramdin's flopped straight. Well after doubling up with aces, Mahkija just came from behind to score another double up against Valdemar Kwaysser. The two got the money in preflop, and Mahkija was in a dominated position.

Mahkija: {3-Hearts}{3-Clubs}
Kwaysser: {7-Hearts}{7-Clubs}

The flop was beautiful for Mahkija as it came out {j-Spades}{3-Spades}{10-Clubs}, giving him a set. Kwaysser needed one of the two sevens left in the deck, but didn't get it as it came {8-Diamonds} and {5-Hearts}. Mahkija doubled up to around 15,500, and is slowly fighting his way back into the table.
