Troubat Scores Double KO - True Dat!

The action folded to Matthew Hinton who moved all in for 35,000 preflop from late position; Nicolas Troubat called from late position before Michael Paciorek reraised all-in for 45,000 from the small blind. Troubat called and the cards were tabled:

Paciorek: {A-Hearts}{A-Diamonds}
Troubat: {K-Spades}{K-Clubs}
Hinton: {A-Clubs}{10-Spades}

The flop of {4-Clubs}{K-Hearts}{J-Spades} put Troubat out further in front with top set, but Hinton's hand got a little help with the outs to the gut-shot straight draw now open to him. The {10-Hearts} on the turn then gave Paciorek the same opportunity, but they both missed after the {2-Clubs} bricked out on the river.

And with that double elimination, Troubat rockets up the chip counts to almost 240,000!
