McLaughlin Doubles

[user101598]
Marc McLaughlin doubled not once, not twice, but three times!

...three times!

In the first hand, Kirk Caldwell forced Marc McLaughlin all in, and he snapped it off.

Caldwell: {k-Hearts}{j-Spades}
McLaughlin: {a-Hearts}{q-Spades}

There wasn't even a sweat as the board ran {4-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{7-Spades}{2-Clubs}, doubling McLaughlin to 540,000 chips.

The very next hand, Caldwell was in the small blind and raised to 275,000. McLaughlin moved all in, and Caldwell called.

Caldwell: {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}
McLaughlin: {6-Spades}{6-Clubs}

Caldwell flopped a sick sweat - {9-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{j-Hearts}. The {4-Clubs} on the turn was a brick though, and so too was the {9-Diamonds} on the river. McLaughlin was now up above a million.

McLaughlin's next double came when he shoved from the small blind. Ben White instantly called with the {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}, and McLaughlin needed help for the first time, holding a very modest {q-Hearts}{4-Clubs}.

The {q-Clubs} snuck right through the window though, and was followed by two tens - {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}. The turn and river came {3-Hearts}, {5-Clubs}, and just like that, McLaughlin was back over 2 million chips.
