Vanier Fills Up to Double Off Johnson
Level 27
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Marco Johnson raised to 130,000 in the cutoff and was called by Yang Li on the button and big blind Mike Vanier.
The flop came A♣4♠4♣ and Johnson bet another 130,000. Li got out of the way, but Vanier raised to 325,000. Johnson then moved all in and Vanier snap-called for 1,040,000.
Mike Vanier: 6♥4♥ 
Marco Johnson: A♠9♠
Vanier turned over trip fours and was poised for a double up as the 6♦ fell on the turn to improve him to a full house. Johnson was left looking for one of the remaining two aces in the deck on the river, but he missed the 7♠ and handed over the double up.
