Quenneville Spikes the River to Stay Alive
Level 27
: 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante
Georg Lehmann raised to 1,600,000 on the button and Troy Quenneville just called from the small blind. Matthias Eibinger moved all in from the big blind which got Lehmann to fold and Quenneville called off his stack of 3,900,000.
Troy Quenneville: 9♦6♦
Matthias Eibinger: A♦5♠
The flop of 10♦7♣2♥ provided no immediate help to either player. The 5♥ on the turn paired Eibinger but the 6♥ on the river gave Quenneville a better pair to double up.
