Vilchez Doubles Through Gioia

Level 13 : 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante

With {2-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} on the felt, Phil Gioia was in the big blind facing an all-in shove worth about 100K from Jesse Vilchez on his left. There was about 150,000 more in the pot already, and Gioia slid in calling chips.

Gioia: {10-}{10-}
Vilchez: {a-}{q-}

Vilchez was fading tens and jacks, and the {5-Hearts} was safe for him.
