Montagnolli Wins Rollercoaster Runout, Selles Left Stunned
Level 5
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Daniel Montagnolli had his stack of over 30,000 in the middle in a coinflip situation against big-stacked Yoel Selles, and a rollercoaster runout ensued.
Daniel Montagnolli: A♦K♠ 
Yoel Selles: Q♣Q♠
Montagnolli flopped an ace on the 5♠A♣Q♥ board, but it also improved Selles to a set. A 5♦ on the turn did give Montagnolli an outside chance of winning the pot, but it was still Selles who was firmly in the driver's seat. That was until the A♠ dropped on the river, which gave Montagnolli a full house and earned him a double-up.
