Carette Finds a Double Up on Macaluso

Level 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Rachid El Yaacoubi started with a raise to 2,000 in the cutoff and Emile Carette three-bet to 6,000 next to him. Luigi Macaluso, in the small blind, decided to four-bet to 20,400 and El Yaacoubi let it go. Carette shoved for a total stack of 37,000 and Macaluso called:

Emile Carette: {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}
Luigi Macaluso: {j-Hearts}{j-Spades}

Carette had to win the flip to stay alive in the tournament, which he did thanks to a board {3-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{a-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}, giving him a pair of aces on the flop.
