It's Chilly Out There
Level 3
: Blinds 200/300, 300 ante
Jenyue Chiang found himself on the wrong side of a cooler early on, in a pot versus Blake Ovind.
Chiang moved all in on a Q♣4♠J♣J♥2♦ board, with two other players, Ovind included, still to act behind him.
Action folded to Ovind, who snap-called, risking his tournament life.
Jenyue Chiang: 4♦4♣
Blake Ovind: Q♥Q♠ 
Full house over full house, and Ovind scoops the pot.
On a nearby table, Paul Brunet was having similar issues.
In a pot versus Dinh Nguyen, Brunet had flopped top two pair on Q♦7♦4♦, all the money went in on the 3♣ turn, and Nguyen gave Brunet the bad news.
Dinh Nyugen: K♦2♦
Paul Brunet: Q♣7♥
The river A♥ wasn't enough to save Brunet as he doubled up his opponent.
