Huge Double Ups for St Onge and Le

Level 16 : 5,000/10,000, 1,500 ante

Just as action at the final table kicked off, Daniel Le got his stack in the middle against Sasan Mehrabian. Le was ahead with {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs} against Mehrabian's {9-Diamonds}{9-Spades}. The board ran out {k-Hearts}{a-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds} and Le won with just ten high, his pair being counterfeited by the board.

just a couple hands later, Francois St Onge scored a big double up. St Onge three-bet shoved on an Alim Ismail open and Ismail put St Onge at risk. Unfortunately, for Ismail, St Onge had {a-Spades}{a-Clubs} and Ismail could only muster {a-Hearts}{j-Clubs}. A clean {5-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{6-Hearts} board was fanned out and St Onge got the double, leaving Ismail with just one big blind.
