Calenzo Doubles Through Wilbur

Kevin Calenzo was knocked down to the short stack thanks to Nicholas Wilbur earlier, but he exacted a bit of revenge as he has just doubled through him. Calenzo open shipped for 248,000 in middle position and it folded to Wilbur on the button, who thought for about 30 seconds before calling. The blinds folded and the cards were tabled.

Calenzo: {a-Clubs}{j-Spades}
Wlibur: {q-Spades}{q-Clubs}

Calenzo was in a world of hurt and he didn't get any help on the flop of {7-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}. The {4-Clubs} on the turn meant that Calenzo needed a three-outer on the river to survive. Well, he got it as the {a-Hearts} slammed down on the river. Calenzo shot up out of his chair in celebration and a few members of the rail erupted in cheer, including one player on a nearby table in another tournament, who yelled "Ace of hearts!"

After the hand Calenzo is back over 500,000, while Wilbur dips back below two million.
