Mullur Finds an Ace For a Double Knockout
Level 15
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Samuel Mullur raised to 50,000 in the hijack and Jason Koon called on the button. Ben Tollerene then moved all in for 585,000 from the small blind, Paulius Vaitiekunas stuck in his last 275,000 in the big blind, and Mullur reshoved to force Koon from the pot.
Paulius Vaitiekunas: Q♣Q♦ 
Ben Tollerene: 7♣7♥
Samuel Mullur: A♥K♣
The flop came A♠9♥4♣ to give Mullur the lead with a pair of aces and leave Vaitiekunas and Tollerene at risk of elimination. The 10♥ turn was no help to the at-risk players, while Mullur improved to trips on the A♦ river to send both opponents to the rail.
