"Youngest Player in the Field" Doubles Up
Niveau 29
: 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Charles Mitchell, who registered for the event just 11 days after turning 50, opened to 275,000 from early position.
Steven Butler, from the button, went all in. Mitchell, who had 420,000 less than Butler, made the call.
Charles Mitchell: 
Steven Butler: 
Upon seeing the bad news, Butler was openly frustrated with himself: "That's what happens when you go card dead, you make terrible decisions the first real hand you see."
The board ran eight-high and Mitchell doubled up to exactly four million, leaving Butler with a little less than four big blinds.
