Ziegelbecker Doubles Through Dam
Level 17
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Oswin Ziegelbecker got his stack of 590,000 into the middle preflop with Martin Dam trying to bust him and send the tournament just one more elimination away from the money.
Oswin Ziegelbecker: A♦A♥10♥10♣ 
Martin Dam: K♦K♥4♣2♣
Ziegelbecker was ahead with two aces and found a safe flop in the form of 10♦7♠5♣ where he improved to top set.
However, the A♣ turn gave Dam flush and straight possibilities, but the 8♠ on the river was a blank, and Ziegelbecker doubled to over a million with his set of aces.
