Spencer Earns Full Double Off Hammouchi

Livello 21 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

The min-raise to 30,000 by Lewis Spencer with the A♥A♠ got rid of Peter Jorgne with the 5♥5♠. Atanas Pavlov in the small blind (Q♣10♣) and Younes Hammouchi (Q♦9♠) came along.

Both blinds flopped top pair on Q♠5♦4♦ and checked to Spencer, who bet 35,000. Pavlov called and Hammouchi raised to 85,000. Spencer let his shot clock run down to five seconds and just called, Pavlov only looked at Spencer and folded.

The K♣ came on the turn and Hammouchi checked. This prompted a bet worth 100,000 by Spencer and Hammouchi went for a double check-raise to 200,000.

Spencer used one time bank extension and then pushed all-in for 425,000, fading the snap-call. Hammouchi counted his own stack and then made the call.

The 4♥ river paired the board and Spencer doubled to a seven-figure stack.

Mathew Frankland raised to 30,000 in the hijack before Lorenzo Arduini three-bet to 85,000 on the button. Frankland then four-bet to 375,000, leaving only around 50,000 behind, then called when Arduini moved all in.

Mathew Frankland: A♣K♥
Lorenzo Arduini: Q♣Q♥

It was a classic coin flip situation, but it wouldn't remain that way for long as the Q♦ fell right in the window, followed by K♠5♠. Frankland had hit his king, but Arduini spiked a set and left Frankland already drawing dead by the 9♦ turn. The river was the 2♥ and Frankland was sent to the rail.
