Baumann Doubles Through Hille

The action folded to Elisabeth Hille, who opened to 480,000 on the button. Gaelle Baumann three-bet jammed for 2.455 million from the big blind, and Hille tank-called.

Baumann: {4-Hearts}{4-Spades}
Hille: {q-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}

The crowd burst into chorus of cheers and "ohhhh"s as the flop fell {7-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{5-Spades}. Baumann had the dummy end of an open-ended straight draw, but any eight would give Hille a higher straight. The {3-Clubs} turned, giving Baumann a seven-high straight, and Hille was drawing to just four cards.

The {q-Clubs} gave Hille a meaningless pair of queens, and Baumann doubled to 5.2 million.
