Level 25 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Richard Hasnip
Richard Hasnip

With around 200,000 in the pot in a blind-versus-blind battle between Richard Hasnip and Kai McCue-Unciano, the flop read {k-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{7-Hearts} and action was on McCue-Unciano. He had bet 90,000 and was facing a check-raise from Hasnip to 240,000. After some thought, he four-bet to 775,000. Hasnip announced he was all in and McCue-Unciano quickly called.

Richard Hasnip: {j-Hearts}{10-Hearts}
Kai McCue-Unciano: {k-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}

Hasnip was in need of help with straight and flush outs to McCue-Unciano's two pair and was in luck when the turn came {5-Hearts}, completing his flush. The river came {6-Clubs} and he faded McCue-Unciano's redraw outs to the full house to secure the double.
