Apicella Finds a Double

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Austin Apicella was all in for 76,000 preflop holding {k-Spades}{j-Hearts}, and was in very bad shape against Jonathan Hilton, who held {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}.

The {q-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} flop gave Hilton a set of queens, but it also gave Apicella an open-ended straight draw. The {9-Clubs} on the turn completed that straight, and the {8-Diamonds} bricked on the river. Apicella doubled to 170,000 chips, while Hilton dropped down to 500,000.
