Ruggeri Spikes the River to Double up Through O'Neill
Level 29
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Padraig O'Neill raised to 200,000 from the hijack and Umberto Ruggeri shoved for 2,055,000 on the button. Action folded back around to O'Neill, who called to put Ruggeri at risk.
Umberto Ruggeri: A♠Q♥
Padraig O'Neill: A♣K♦
The 4♠4♣J♠ flop and 5♥ turn looked bleak for Ruggeri, but the Q♠ paired his queen on the river for the dramatic double up.
