Penfold Cracks O'Connors Aces During Late-Night Surge

Frank Visser

Level 15 : Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

James O'Connor and Lawrence Penfold got all their chips in the middle preflop, with O'Connor's stack of about 175,000 being at risk.

James O'Connor: A♠A♥ All in
Lawrence Penfold: Q♥Q♦

Penfold flopped a set on 9♦2♠Q♠ to take a big lead, and he locked up the pot when the Q♣ turn provided him with quads.

O'Connor said his goodbyes as the meaningless 5♠ river rolled off, and Penfold added some more chips to his impressive stack.
