*** SUMMARY ***
Total pot 1380 | Rake 0
Board [5h 7d 5s]
Seat 1: BlessedDude folded before Flop (didn't bet)
Seat 5: Gamble NM folded before Flop (didn't bet)
Seat 6: greenville10 folded before Flop (didn't bet)
Seat 8: oxide123 (button) folded before Flop (didn't bet)
Seat 9: floschie99 (small blind) collected (1380)
Seat 10: k06mars (big blind) folded on the Flop

For the record, I was positive floshie99 didn't have an overpair.  However, with a solid stack and only one player to the double-or-nothing cash, it makes no sense to commit any sort of serious to a pot with the chip leader.  How crappy would it feel to go from a 4k stack with an INSANE chance of making the money to nothing at all, in just one hand?  Do yourself a favor and do one better than me, fold those queens preflop if you find yourself in my position.
