Pett Doubles Up
Level 12
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
The heads-up action was picked up with 152,500 already in the pot and a board reading on the table.
The button led out for 85,000, around half his remaining chips. Mark Pett, in the big blind, went into the tank briefly, before eventually moving all in with the effective stack of 126,500.
"Yeah. You caught me," his opponent responded, seeming to know he was beat, but tossing in the call anyway. "Nice call."

Pett was ahead, but any ace, jack or heart on the river would end his tournament dreams. He evaded his opponent's outs successfully, as the river was a brick. He scooped the pot to move to nearly double the size of the average stack.
