Silva Spikes a Miracle on the Turn to Double
Level 14
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
A player in middle position raised to 30,000 before Isabella Costa three-bet to 75,000 in the hijack. Giorgio Silva then moved all in for 350,000 in the small blind, the middle-position player folded, but Costa snap-called.
Giorgio Silva: Q♥Q♦ 
Isabella Costa: K♦K♣
Silva had run his queens into Costa's kings and was at risk of being eliminated on the money bubble as the flop came A♣9♥2♥, but he caught the Q♠ on the turn to take the lead. The river was the 3♦ and Silva doubled up.
