Another Double: Hwang Through Wessman

Level 13 : 1,000/2,500, 0 ante

On Hand #15 of hand-for-hand play, signifying 30 minutes of clock and one-half of an entire level on the bubble, Andy Hwang check-raised all in on a board of {6-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{3-Spades}{9-Clubs} from the big blind over a bet of 31,500 from Anders Wessman, who was on the button. Wessman called.

Andy Hwang: {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}
Anders Wessman: {5-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{3-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}

Hwang was ahead with his pair of queens and was able to fade Wessman's outs to a straight or to two pair as the river fell {6-Diamonds} and he secured the double, prompting the tournament director to get on the microphone and instruct the dealers to deal another hand.
