Miconi Cripples Tighe and Doubles Up

David Tighe raised all in for 52,000 and then Giorgio Miconi called all in for slightly less, 50,000. Everyone else folded. Tighe held {8-Clubs} {8-Hearts} and Miconi held a slight edge with {10-Diamonds} {10-Spades}.

The board ran out {K-Clubs} {7-Spades} {2-Hearts} {7-Diamonds} {A-Diamonds} and Miconi doubled up to 110,000. Tighe was left severely crippled with only 2,000 chips.
