Soulier Wins A Race, Doubles Up

When we arrived at the table, we saw that Fabrice Soulier and Michael Nellis had gotten in a preflop raising war that saw all of Soulier's chips get in the middle. Soulier held {q-Diamonds}{q-Spades} while Nellis had {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts}. The board ran true for Soulier, coming {5-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{j-Spades}, and Soulier doubled up to 51,000.
