Theologis Snags a Double as the Bubble Appoaches

Level 16 : 5,000/10,000, 1,250 ante

Luan "Pseudo Fruto" Felipe shoved from under the gun for a total of 116,047 and "ziG.MOPA" jammed over the top, putting 597,714 into the middle. Alexandros "Pwndidi" Theologis called, having just barely enough.

Luan "Pseudo Fruto" Felipe: {k-Clubs}{q-Hearts}
"ziG.MOPA": {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}
Alexandros "Pwndidi" Theologis: {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}

The board came down {7-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{4-Clubs} and the queens of Theologis were more than enough to secure the entire thing, dropping two from the field.
