Goncalves Hits Quads to Double Off Eychenne
Level 20
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Thomas Eychenne raised to 25,000 in the hijack, Manuel Goncalves moved all in for 105,000 in the cutoff, and Eychenne called.
Manuel Goncalves: 7♠7♦ 
Thomas Eychenne: A♥5♥
Eychenne found himself in nearly the same situation he was in when he busted Erik Bauer earlier this level, but this time Goncalves hit a set on the 7♥K♣9♣ flop. A round of "oohs" went up from the table when the 9♥ fell on the turn to give Eychenne a flush draw, but they then realized Goncalves had already improved to a full house and Eychenne was drawing dead.
The river was the 7♣ and Goncalves hit quads to seal his double up.
