Backlund Connects to Double

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

The action folded to Stephane Blouin in the small blind and he moved all in. Erik Backlund made the call from the big blind for his last 113,000 and the cards were tabled.

Blouin: {J-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}
Backlund: {K-Hearts}{10-Hearts}

The board ran out {5-Spades}{7-Spades}{10-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} to see Backlund double through to over 230,000 as Blouin slipped to roughly 250,000 in chips.
