Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

Sergio De La Fuente opened to 700 from early position and received a call from a player in middle position before a player in the hijack three-bet to 2,600. A player in the cutoff four-bet to 7,500 and De La Fuente put in a five-bet to 20,000. Only the cutoff called.

The flop came Q♦10♦4♠ and De La Fuente moved all in for roughly 25,000. His opponent, who was slightly covered, went deep into the tank.

After roughly three minutes the cutoff put in the call and was at risk.

Cutoff: K♥K♣
Sergio De La Fuente: A♦A♠

It was the ultimate cooler as the cutoff had pocket-kings only to run into De La Fuente's pocket-aces. The 7♥ turn and 4♣ river were bricks and De La Fuente scored a colossal early double up and a pot worth over 200 big blinds while his opponent made his exit from the tournament area.
