Bardah Doubles Twice to Stay In It
Ronnie Bardah was down to his last 65,000 chips when he was in the big blind. John Racener raised on the button and Bardah called leaving 5,000 behind.
The flop came Q♣5♣4♥ when Bardah bet out his last 5,000 and Racener called.
Ronnie Bardah: Q♦4♠ 
John Racener: A♠7♠
Bardah got a big blind special and flopped two pair, and the board did not improve Racener's hand, to give Bardah the double.
Just a few hands later Bardah raised from the hijack and was three-bet by Shyamsundar Challa on the button. Bardah called to see a flop.
The flop came out 4♣9♠5♥ and Bardah led out, and Challa raised to put Bardah all in. Bardah made the call and was at risk again.
Ronnie Bardah 6x6x
Shyamsundar Challa: AxQx
Bardah was ahead and would have to fade the two overcards to secure another double. But when the 6♥ came on the turn, he left Challa drawing dead. The river was the 9♥ and Bardah was able to double up twice in less than one orbit.
