De Silva Binks Double in Dramatic Fashion

Level 19 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Upeshka De Silva had the best of it preflop when he got it in for around 20 big blinds with {K-Spades}{k-Diamonds} and faced Felipe Olivieri, who flipped over {A-Spades}{Q-Clubs}. However, the {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}{10-Spades} flop was bad news for De Silva.

He picked up some further outs on the {9-Diamonds} turn and the {J-Clubs} rolled off on the river to restore the preflop order, allowing De Silva to double with a king-high straight.
