Quads Helps Vasilica Double Up

Level 38 : Blinds 500,000/1,000,000, 1,000,000 ante
Balan Vasilica
Balan Vasilica

Balan Vasilica was all in for 2,000,000 and had been called by Sean Quinn.

Balan Vasilica: {a-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}
Sean Quinn: {5-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}

The {9-Spades}{9-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} was eye-catching, but it was enough for Vasilica to double up.

A short while later a shove from Vasilica would get through as he stayed alive, albeit as the short stack at the feature table.

Charlton Scores Big Double from Cresswell

Level 38 : Blinds 500,000/1,000,000, 1,000,000 ante

Under-the-gun Gareth Cresswell moved all in for around 14,500,000 and was called by Charlton Tarimo on the button. The blinds folded and the cards were tabled, with Tarimo at risk.

Charlton Tarimo: {a-Diamonds}{a-Spades}
Gareth Cresswell: {9-Clubs}{9-Spades}

Heavily dominated, Cresswell needed a nine to win, but the runout of {j-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{2-Spades}{j-Spades} did not provide and Tarimo scored a massive double up.

Cresswell was left with just 1,350,000 but was able to double through Tarimo on the very next hand
