Rollercoaster Ride for Savakinas

Level 19 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

After an open to 12,000 preflop, Lionel Mendoza raised to 30,000, then one player called and then Michael Savakinas raised the pot to 138,000, leaving only 2,000 behind. Action folded back to Mendoza who then moved all in for 400,000, which forced the other player to fold. Savakinas quickly threw in his remaining two chips and the cards were exposed, with Savakinas at risk.

Michael Savakinas: {q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{j-Spades}
Lionel Mendoza: {k-Clubs}{k-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{j-Hearts}

Mendoza started off in the lead, but the flop of {q-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} put Savikinas out in front with top set of queens.

The turn, however, brought the {10-Diamonds} which gave Mendoza the nut straight with his king-jack putting him back in the lead.

But then the {10-Clubs} river paired the board and gave Savakinas the top full house, winning him the pot for a big double up.
