Three Double Ups

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Frederico Spilimbergo Volpe remains among the top stacks just before dinner, but he just took a hit when Aeragan Arunan doubled through him. Arunan had raised and then four-bet shoved for 207,000 into Volpe's three-bet of 53,000, and Volpe called.

Frederico Spilimbergo Volpe: {9-Spades}{9-Hearts}
Aeragan Arunan: {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}

The board came {Q-Spades}{4-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds} and the Brit kept his hopes of a deep run alive.

James Romero also lost a minor chunk of his stack, 108,000 to be exact, when Hady El Asmar doubled with {A-Diamonds}{K-Hearts} against his {A-Spades}{Q-Clubs}. The board of {Q-Hearts}{j-Spades}{7-Hearts}{K-Clubs}{4-Spades} provided both kickers of each player and El Asmar doubled.

Last but not least, Pim Kuipers doubled his stack of 162,000 with {K-Spades}{K-Hearts} against the {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs} of Tibor Nagygyorgy. The board of {K-Clubs}{5-Spades}{3-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}{2-Hearts} gave both players a set.
