Linde Scores a Double Knockout

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Franco Spitale shoved his short stack into the middle, and with action on Dylan Linde two seats over he re-shoved. It then folded around to Pete Chen in the big blind and he also moved all in.

Franco Spitale: {q-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}
Dylan Linde: {q-Spades}{q-Clubs}
Pete Chen: {j-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}

The board ran out {7-Clubs}{2-Spades}{9-Clubs}{5-Spades}{6-Spades}, which kept Linde's overpair in the lead, and since he had the largest chip stack both Spitale and Chen were eliminated.
