Davis on Fumes After Doubling Hernandez
Level 31
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Start of day chipleader Kevin Davis opened to 600,000 from under the gun and Gerardo Hernandez three-bet to 2,000,000 in the cutoff. Davis responded by four-betting to 6,100,000 before snapping off with the slightly larger stack after Hernandez shoved for 19,600,000.
Gerardo Hernandez: A?A? 
Kevin Davis: K?K?
It was the ultimate preflop cooler with massive equity implications on the line. The J?10?9? flop did give Davis some hope in the form of a gutshot but nothing changed on either the J? turn or 2? river to hand Hernandez a huge double that sees him capture the tournament chiplead while leaving Davis with dust.
