Rubie Doubles Huge Through Angood

In the last hand before the break, we had a monster pot develop, the largest of the tournament so far. It happened when action folded to Brendon Rubie in the small blind and he bumped it up to 80,000, which Rob Angood three-bet to 211,000 from the big. Rubie took a few moments before four-betting 211,000 more, Angood moved all in, and Rubie snap-called.

Showdown
Rubie: {A-Clubs}{A-Hearts}
Angood: {A-Spades}{9-Diamonds}

A few minutes before this hand developed, Angood had told Rubie that he thought they'd be playing a big hand soon, and he wasn't kidding. Unfortunately for him, he got his money in at the worst possible time. The {J-Spades}{10-Spades}{3-Clubs} flop gave Angood a few runner-runner possibilities, but the {10-Diamonds} turn tore them away and left him drawing dead.

The {2-Clubs} was put out on the river for good measure as Rubie doubled to 4.4 million while Angood was left with 950,000.
