Level 33 : 120,000/240,000, 30,000 ante

Emanuele Onnis

Fabian Gumz raised to 550,000 from the button and Emanuele Onnis three-bet to 1,400,000 which Gumz called.

The flop came {k-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{9-Clubs}, Onnis shoved for 6,100,000 and Gumz called after considering it for a bit.

Emanuele Onnis: {8-Clubs}{j-Spades}
Fabian Gumz: {k-Spades}{q-Hearts}

The turn was the {q-Spades} to give Gumz two pair but completed Onnis' straight in the process. Onnis needed to avoid another king or queen to double up.

The river completed the board with the {3-Spades} which was a safe card for Onnis as he got paid the double-up to balance out the stacks a bit more.
