Dominguez Scores a Double
Ran Kadur opened to 1,700,000 from the cutoff and got a three-bet to 4,800,000 from Nick Ahmadi on the button. Jorge Dominguez thought for a second, then announced all in for 7,800,000. Kadur got out of the way, and Ahmadi asked for a count.
Dominguez was telling Ahmadi to just call, but Ahmadi replied he wanted a count to be sure how much he'd have to call. After the count was done, he made the call.
Jorge Dominguez: A♦Q♦ 
Nick Ahmadi: A♣10♥
Dominguez let out a cheer when he saw he dominated Ahmadi. He was looking at a potential double-up when the flop dropped 9♣8♠7♦, giving Ahmadi an open-ended straight draw.
Dominguez started saying, "No" indicating he didn't want a card to complete Ahmadi's straight, and clapped when the 5♦ came on the turn. He anxiously waited for the river to be dealt with when the A♠ came, making his double-up a certainty.
At which point, Kadur commented that if Ahmadi hadn't pushed him out of the hand, Dominguez would have been eliminated. Pretending to be pained by the comment, Dominguez said with a smile, "I thought you were my friend."
