Racener doubles up on the 10th hand

The first heads-up excitement in the World Series of Poker’s $10,000 buy-in No-limit Hold’em World Championship event took place on the 10th hand of the night.

John Racener, trailing 11-to-1 in chips, called when Jonathan Duhamel put him all-in. Racener’s pocket queens held up as Duhamel showed a king-four. The second king never showed up on the flop, turn or river and Racner doubled up to 36 million in chips.
