Carreras Makes the Right Call and Doubles
Level 23
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
The action folded to Sergio Alonso on the button who shoved all in for 400,000. Bernat Carreras was in the big blind and burned through a couple of this time banks before calling off his stack of 360,000.
Bernat Carreras: 
Sergio Alonso: 
The flop came 
and Carreras stayed in the lead with a pair of eights. The 
on the turn made things sweaty as Alonso now had straight and flush draws to go with his two over cards. It was the 
on the river that gave Carrereas trip eights and earned himself a double up.
