Höfling Spikes Ten On River For Double Elimination

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

A player from later position raised to 3,500 and the cutoff player three-bet all in for 10,000. Action folded to the small blind player who shoved over the top for 53,000 and Matthias Höfling called from the big blind while the initial raiser folded.

All In Player: {5-Clubs}{5-Spades}
Matthias Höfling: {a-Spades}{10-Spades}
Small Blind Player: {a-Clubs}{k-Spades}

The flop of {3-Clubs}{4-Spades}{4-Hearts} was no help to Höfling, nor was the {j-Clubs} on the turn, but luckily there's a river as it fell the {10-Hearts} and he eliminated both his opponents picking up 2 bounties along with their chips.
