Abate Doubles Through Rivest

Level 18 : 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

We got to the table as the dealer was counting out Giovanni Abate's stack on the button, as he just doubled with 333,000 chips. Kevin Rivest was on the other end in the cutoff.

Abate had {4-Spades}{3-Diamonds} on a board reading {7-Spades}{4-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{k-Hearts} and Abate was good with fours full of kings. Rivest's hand was mucked.

Abate started the day with 398,000 and has almost doubled that since sitting down.
