No Flip Luck For Reparejo

Level 21 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante

Hand #142

Olivier Doremus moved all in from under the gun for 220,000 and in the small blind, Roland Reparejo called after some consideration. The big blind folded and it was time for yet another coin flip showdown:

Doremus: {K-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}
Reparejo: {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}

The short stack binked the {8-Clubs}{K-Spades}{3-Diamonds} flop, after the {K-Hearts} turn Reparejo asked for an eight ball but it wasn't meant to be. The {8-Hearts} completed a full house for Doremus and he doubled up once again.
