Simon "Isildur1337x" Mattson on an Upward Journey

Level 9 : 400/800, 100 ante

Sweden's Simon "Isildur1337x" Mattson have been grinding steadily for the last few hours, but just managed to take out a shortstack and move up to almost double the average.

Mattson called a 14 big blind shove holding {A-Spades}{10-Hearts}, and by making two pairs against the {A-Hearts}{8-Spades} of his opponent, he surged to the better half of the standings.
