Joseph Hoffman has been on the ropes multiple times at this final table, but he's always managed to salvage at least a chop. Well he just got a full double up to get him back to over 100,000, and right back into the final table.
Hoffman got his chips in preflop holding [8c][7h][Ah][4h], and he was up against the [As][Ad][10d][10c] of Chris Cook. The flop of [Ks][5s][4c] gave Hoffman some low and straight outs, and while the [5h] on the turn was no help, the [4d] on the river was a big help. Trip fours gives Hoffman the double, while Cook is back under 100,000.
Joseph Hoffman - 130,000
Chris Cook - 95,000
