Yau Doubles Up Then Doubles Up Csampai
Level 11
: Blinds 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante
Ethan Yau opened to 5,000 from under the gun and it folded to the button who three-bet to 17,000. The blinds got out of the way and Yau moved all in for 45,000 total, which the button called to put Yau at risk.
Ethan Yau: 
Opponent: 
The board was a sweaty one for Yau as it came 
, but when the turn and river fell 
the queens held up for a full double.
Yau wouldn't be able to enjoy his newly acquired chips for long as on the very next hand action folded to the Peter Csampai in the small blind who limped in and Yau moved all in, covering the 52,500 stack of Csampai, who snap-called.
Peter Csampai: 
Ethan Yau: 
It was a flip situation and when the board ran out 
, it was the ace-king for Csampai that scored the pot and full double up off Yau.
