Hu Gets It Back, Doubles Off Browne

Level 34 : Blinds 200,000/500,000, 500,000 ante

Action folded to Paul Browne in the small blind who moved all in with {q-Spades}{3-Spades}. David Hu looked down at {k-Spades}{8-Spades} in the big blind and called for his last 4,800,000.

Hu hit a pair on the {a-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{k-Hearts} flop and Browne was already drawing dead by the {2-Clubs} turn. The meaningless {9-Clubs} fell on the river and Hu doubled up while Browne, the one-time chip leader at the final table, dropped down to the shortest stack.
