A Big Double for Schmejkal is a Huge Hit for Ferrari

Fortunes are changing here in the eighth floor ballroom at the StarWorld Hotel and Casino. Moritz Schmejkal raised from under the gun to 12,000. Action folded to Michele Ferrari in the small blind, who made it 36,000 to go. After the big blind passed, Schmejkal shoved all in for about 80,000.

Ferrari went into the tank for a few minutes before finally calling and tabling {A-Spades} {Q-Hearts}. Schmejkal triumphantly turned over pocket kings, which quickly became a full house after the {5-Spades} {K-Spades} {5-Clubs} flop. The turn and river came {Q-Diamonds} {4-Diamonds}, nowhere near enough to win the hand for Ferrari.

"I didn't expect you to call with ace-queen there," remarked a grateful Schmejkal after the hand.
