Spencer Scores a Double Knockout
Level 13
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
The action started with a raise to 5,000 by Gonzalo Almeida and Kevin Fernandez Ferrer then pushed all-in from one seat over in the hijack. Pierre Merlin called all-in out of the cutoff for around four blinds and the action then reached Lewis Spencer in the small blind.
"How much is the bigger one?" Spencer inquired and the shove by Fernandez Ferrer was for 37,000 total, which the Brit just called. Almeida got out of the way and the cards were revealed.
Pierre Merlin: 4♥4♣
Kevin Fernandez Ferrer: A♦K♣
Lewis Spencer: Q♦Q♣
Merlin took the lead with the 7♣4♠3♦ flop for a potential quadruple up and retained it on the 8♣ turn. He only needed to dodge a queen but the Q♥ fell on the river to give Spencer the superior set for a double knockout.
