Aerts Doubles Through Buldygin
Level 11
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Pieter Aerts had his stack of around 100,000 in the middle and was put at risk by Viacheslav Buldygin.
Pieter Aerts: 7♥7♣ 
Viacheslav Buldygin: K♣Q♥
It looked to be the end of the road for Aerts after the 4♦Q♣5♠ flop gave Buldygin a pair of queens. However, Aerts found a set on the 7♦ turn to lock up the pot. A meaningless 5♣ on the river gave him a full house, and kept him alive.
