O'Rourke Rakes in a Massive Double Up
Gavin O'Rourke started the day with well above the 143,000-chip average, but he just doubled through Mustafa Biz to become one of the chip leaders of the tournament.
O'Rourke raised from middle position to 7,000 and from his direct left it was Biz who three-bet to 18,000. The action folded back around to O'Rourke, and he four-bet to 47,000 and Biz called.
The flop brought out 
and O'Rourke lead out for 40,000, after which Biz moved all in right away.
O'Rourke, who looked a bit stunned with Biz's big shove, leaned back in his chair and almost reluctantly tossed forward some chips to make the call.
A massive pot worth 536,000 chips was upon us, and O'Rourke tabled 
against Biz's 
.
On the turn the 
hit and the river was the 
, giving O'Rourke a big double up, leaving Biz with a little less than average.
