Level 4 : 1,000/1,500, 2,000 ante

Cary Katz opened under the gun to 4,000 and Laz Hernandez three-bet the cutoff to 12,000. From the small blind, Tom Marchese cold four-bet to 35,000 and Katz quickly folded.

Hernandez asked to see Marchese's chips, and after that he slid out a stack of chips amounting to a five-bet of 117,000. Marchese shoved for 210,000, and Hernandez called.

Hernandez: {J-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}
Marchese: {Q-Clubs}{Q-Spades}

The dealer spread a {K-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{8-Spades}{5-Clubs}{K-Diamonds} board, and Marchese held on for the double.
