Montgomery bet 16,000, Dang folded, Redfern folded, Costa raised to 48 and Montgomery called all in.

Montgomery: {A-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{Q-Hearts}
Costa: {Q-Spades}{K-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{5-Hearts}

Turn: {6-Spades}

River: {3-Clubs}

Costa takes out Montgomery to extend his lead to 380,000. He now has 120,000 more than Nenad Medic in second place and won't have been this excited since his honeymoon!

Double Your Pleasure

Michael Shklover recently doubled here in Event #20.

Twice.

His first double-up was through Michael Mixer. Shklover got his last 14,000 chips in preflop and Mixer was his only customer.

Shklover opened {A-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{3-Clubs} and was against Mixer's {K-Hearts}{K-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}

Shklover successfully cracked Mixer's kings when the board ran {10-Spades}{9-Spades}{6-Spades}{4-Clubs}{10-Clubs}, doubling him to 30,000 chips.

A few hands later he was all in again - this time John "Tex" Barch had him at risk.

Shklover was behind a big pair once again. Barch held {A-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{3-Spades} and Shklover's {K-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} needed to improved.

The {K-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}{J-Spades} flop was a monster for Shklover though, and Barch couldn't find an ace on the turn or the river.

After two doubles, Shklover is sitting with 64,000 chips.
