O'Brien Doubles With a Boat on the River

Level 7 : 200/400, 50 ante

We caught this hand taking place on the river with a big pile of chips in the pot. The board was at the river reading {Q-Diamonds} {K-Spades} {9-Hearts} {A-Spades} {9-Spades}. Dan O'Brien moved all in for 15,825 after his opponent bet 4,500. His opponent called and O'Brien turned over {Q-Hearts} {Q-Spades} for a full house.

His opponent complained, "What a sick river. Just sick." And then he counted out the 15,825 and shipped it over to O'Brien.
