split string only when two or more spaces occurs.
string="Talk Talk Walk Walk sell sell";
Expected Result after split:
string[0]='Talk Talk';
string[1]='Walk Walk';

You can use the regular expression /\s{2,}/, which means that, if there are 2 or more white space characters, split the string there.
myString="Talk Talk Walk Walk sell sell";
console.log(myString.split(/\s{2,}/));
Output
[ 'Talk Talk', 'Walk Walk', 'sell sell' ]

Try this:
var str="Talk Talk Walk Walk sell sell";
var s = str.replace(/ {2,}/g,";").split(';');

Try this if not using RegEx.
var myString = "Talk Talk Walk Walk sell sell";
var result = myString.split(" ");
for (var i = result.length - 1; i >= 0; i--) {
if (result[i] === "") {
result.splice(i, 1);
}
}
The result variable will have an array of split values.

You might want to trim the resultant elements.
"a b".split(two_spaces) yields ["a", " b"]. Then, you'd have to remove empty elements.Try this simple way:
var x = str.split(" +");
