Iati Finds a Huge Double

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

Taylor Paur raised from under the gun to 25,000, it came around to Rocco Iati who then reaised to 125,000. It didn't take long for Paur to go all in and Iati quickly made the call.

Rocco Iati: AA
Taylor Paur: AQ

A spade in the window caused a glimmer of hope for Paur before the dealer spread a rainbow board. No spade on the turn left Paur drawing dead and Iati's stack went from average to double that.

A New Chip Leader Emerges

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

Chino Rheem was facing a raise from early position to 20,000 and he reraised to 60,000. Aaron Johnson, in late position, then inquired the size of Rheem's stack, which was well over 600,000. After some deliberation he raised it to 215,000 and it folded back to Rheem. All in was declared and Johnson made the call.

Chino Rheem: AK
Aaron Johnson: QQ

The flop brought the 5K5, but Rheem made no celebrations until the turn and river bricked. Even then, it was just a gleam of understanding of what over a million in chips can do in a bracelet event. Johnson took the loss well, spending the time counting his remaining chips.
