Spitzberg Doubles

Over on the secondary feature table, Paul Spitzberg moved his last 490,000 into the middle before the flop with a measly-looking {8-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}, but he found himself in a flip for his tournament life against Tri Huynh, who called with {3-Spades}{3-Clubs}.

It wasn't looking good for Spitzberg after the flop of {2-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}, but the turn of the {8-Hearts} had the crowd in awe. The {10-Spades} on the river completed the board, giving Paul Spitzberg the bigger two pair and the double-up!
