Criego Bounces Back

From under the gun, Jeff Madsen raised to 90,000 before Bill Criego moved all in from middle position. Action folded back to Madsen and he asked for a count. The dealer announced that it was 365,000 more to Madsen and he made the call.

Madsen: {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}
Criego: {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}

The flop was clean for Madsen when it rolled off {k-Spades}{8-Spades}{7-Clubs}. But the turn was not as kind. The {a-Clubs} left Criego one card away from a double up and the {6-Spades} river sealed it.
