Osborne Hits his Ace to Double

Level 24 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

As the cards were being dealt, Mark Osborne was given the {a-Diamonds} which flashed up on the table. He was dealt a replacement card and moved all in for somewhere in the region of 100,000. Tournament chip leader Taylor Carroll called.

Mark Osborne: {a-Spades}{q-Hearts}
Taylor Carroll: {j-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}

Osborne clarified that he had been dealt the queen first so hadn't missed out on aces, but it didn't matter as the {9-Clubs}{a-Clubs}{5-Hearts} flop gave him the lead. The turn {2-Spades} and river {q-Diamonds} doubled him up.
