Former WSOP Main Event Champ Dan Harrington has just doubled up to 40,000 in chips with the elimination of Australian pro Sam Youssef. A fan on the rail was kind enough to relay the action as he saw it, which was verified by one of the players at the table:

Youssef opened the pot with a raise to 700 from under-the-gun by mistake, accidentally throwing a purple (T500) chip into the middle with two black (T100) ones. Harrington made the call from the cutoff holding a pocket pair of queens and the flop came {Q-?}{10-Spades}{5-Spades}.

Youssef then checked the flop to "Action Dan" who fired a 1,000 bet. Youssef responded with a massive raise, kicking it up to 7,000. Harrington, sitting with the mortal nuts, moved all in over the top of Youssef's raise and Youssef made the call holding {A-Spades}{J-Spades}.

The turn and river then filled out {7-Clubs}, {5-Clubs} giving Harrington queens full to send Youssef to the rail.
