Peter Doubles With Top Set
Level 5
: Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
Emilio De Angelis opened to 1,100 under the gun. Mischa Peter called in the small blind before big blind Guido Pieraccini made it 4,500 to go.
Both De Angelis and Peter called to the 4♣6♦J♦ flop, where Pieraccini continued for 5,500. De Angelis quickly moved out of the way while Peter stuck in his stack of 14,500.
A quick call followed from Pieraccini, revealing the cards.
Mischa Peter: J♠J♥ 
Guido Pieraccini: 9♥9♣
Pieraccini needed running nines against the set of Peter. The miracle did not come on the Q♣A♣ runout, and Peter doubled up instead.
