Hungry? Why Wait? Grab a Snickles

We caught up to see Ryan Snickles all in for his tournament life against an opponent. Snickles held {Q-Spades}{Q-Hearts} on a board of {J-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} and was looking to dodge his opponent's open ended straight draw with {K-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}.

The turn and river came {2-Spades} and {3-Hearts} respectively and Snickles was able to score a double up.

"From 20k to 120k in two hands on the bubble," chimed in David "Doc" Sands said from the next seat over. Snickles was short stacked but has suddenly found chips late in the day.
