Anthony Signore Doubles Through Dean Bui

Anthony Signore
Anthony Signore
Action folded around to Anthony Signore in the cutoff seat and he pushed out his entire stack of 124,000. Dean Bui on the button went into the tank. He thought for about a minute and a half before finally calling. The blinds folded and Bui said, "I just have an ace." The players showed:

Bui: {A-Hearts} {8-Spades}
Signore: {K-Diamonds} {Q-Hearts}

The flop came {K-Hearts} {10-Diamonds} {4-Spades} and Signore, along with a couple of his supporters, let out a deep breath. The turn and river helped neither player as they came the {9-Spades} and {9-Hearts} respectively.

After the river fell, Bui said, "Nice hand."

Signore nodded in thanks and mumbled, "Best hand I've seen in two hours." Both players are roughly even after the hand with approximately 255,000 in chips.
