Chino Catches Miraculous Double-Up

David "Chino" Rheem Stays Alive!
David "Chino" Rheem Stays Alive!
Chino Rheem opened with a raise to 36,000 from early position with Mike Matusow making the call. The action then folded to Sean Davis in the small blind, who announced a raise to 140,000. It was back with Rheem, who moved all in. Matusow got out of the way and Davis made a quick call.

Rheem: {Q-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}
Davis: {K-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}

The flop came {J-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}, but a miracle {Q-Diamonds} on the turn gave Rheem his two-outer to the screams of delight from his entourage in the stands. The river bricked the {3-Diamonds} and Rheem finds an incredible double-up to be back to close to 1.5 million chips.
