Torelli Sends Lagan Home

Level 14
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Marc MacDonnell raised to 6,000 from middle position before Alec Torelli three-bet to 17,500 from the next position. When it folded to Paul Lagan in the big blind he four-bet shoved for roughly 70,000. MacDonnell folded, but Torelli called.
Paul Lagan: 5♥5♠
Alec Torelli: Q♣Q♦
Lagan had to find a five to beat the queens of Torelli. However, the board ran out J♦K♥J♠7♣Q♠ to give Torelli the winner with a boat, and Lagan was out of the Main Event.
