Lo Russo Cracks Kings to Survive

Level 32 : 2,000,000/4,000,000, 4,000,000 ante

Maurizio Lo Russo moved all-in for 65.4 million from under the gun with {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}. Action folded to Kevin Rivest on the button and he moved all-in with {k-Spades}{k-Hearts}.

Lo Russo was at risk and behind, needing to hit an ace or make a big hand to survive.

The flop came {q-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{5-Spades} and Lo Russo was still behind. The turn changed things when the {a-Clubs} hit the felt, putting Lo Russo in the lead with a pair of aces. Rivest was left with one out but couldn't get there as the {5-Diamonds} hit the river to give Lo Russo the double.
