Gonsalves Doubles Against Burns

Level 24 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Kahle Burns put Markus Gonsalves at risk of elimination when Gonsalves had his last 400,000 in the middle. Burns had the lesser hand with {9-Spades}{8-Spades} but he did have live cards against the {a-Hearts}{10-Spades} of Gonsalves.

The {8-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{3-Spades} flop gave the lead to Burns but Gonsalves regained the lead after the {10-Hearts} turn. The river was the {2-Clubs} and Gonsalves doubled

Huber Doubles Through Yifrach

Level 24 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Stefan Huber pushed all in from the hijack and Gal Yifrach immediately wanted a count. The stack of Huber was 525,000 and Yifrach quickly called. The others all got out of the way and they opened up.

Huber was behind with his {a-Clubs}{9-Spades} against the {a-Diamonds}{q-Clubs} of Yifrach but the {j-Spades}{10-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} flop gave him a bit more outs. The {7-Hearts} on the turn was one of those outs and he faded a nine on the {6-Clubs} river to double up.
