A Couple of Doubles
Level 22
: 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
A couple of shorter stacks have been the beneficiaries of doubles as of late.
The first was Shawn Meyer, who called off for 77,000 from the button after William Perpich moved all in from the cutoff. The former held the 
and bested the 
of the latter after the board ran out 
.
Ben Smith also doubled when he opened for 22,000 under the gun and then moved all in for 117,000 after Sean Small had three-bet to 61,000. Small called with the 
and was racing against the 
of Smith. The 
flop kept Small firmly in the lead, as did the 
turn, but the 
spiked on the river to give Smith the win.
