Daniels Back on the Ascendency
Level 40
: Blinds 1,000,000/2,000,000, 2,000,000 ante
Julien Montois bet 4,000,000 from the cutoff and Shawn Daniels moved all in from the small blind for 21,700,000. The Frenchman Montois made the call.
Shawn Daniels: K♣Q♥
Julien Montois: A♠Q♣
Daniels was in trouble as Montois had a dominating hand. Both players made top pair on the Q♦10♣3♥ flop. The 10♥ gave both players two pair, but the K♥ on the river improved Daniels to kings and queens to give Daniels a vital double up and deliver a devastating blow to Montois's stack
