Mangroe Turns Quads to Double
Level 24
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Vladimir Erceg raised to 65,000 from the cutoff, Firoz Mangroe three-bet jammed for 480,000 from the big blind and Erceg called.
Firoz Mangroe: Q♣Q♥ 
Vladimir Erceg: A♠7♠
Mangroe was ahead and the 8♠Q♦7♣ flop improved him to top set. The table discussed Erceg's prospects of victory by hitting running spades, however, the Q♠ turn was the only spade in the deck that had Erceg drawing dead. The river landed the 4♣; Mangroe's quads ensured him the full double.
Meanwhile Aliaksandr Shylko was eliminated, trimming the field to 32 players.
