Carbo Doubles Another; Trattou Gets More Help From the Dealer

Oleg Ustinovich moved all in for 115,000 from middle position and Gerard Carbo took his second shot at eliminating a player this level, calling in the hijack. The rest of the table got out of the way.

Oleg Ustinovich: K♥Q♣
Gerard Carbo: 7♣7♥

The flop came 3♠K♣K♠ and Ustinovich made trips to take a big lead in the hand. The rest of the board came 6♣A♥ and Ustinovich doubled up.

At the same time on another table, Raoul Refos raised to 20,000 and David Kaufmann called before Mario Trattou shoved for 131,000 in the cutoff. Refos folded, but Kaufmann called to put Trattou at risk.

Mario Trattou: A♠Q♥
David Kaufmann: 10♥10♠

Like Ustinovich, Trattou was flipping for his tournament life and also hit trips on the Q♠Q♦4♦ flop. The board ran out 9♣9♥ and he finished with a full house.

"Thank you for wishing me good luck," he told Kaufmann. "And thank you dealer," he added.
