Level 19 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

George Zinaty opened in middle position, Kyle Cartwright called on his direct left, and Hoa Nguyen three-bet to 27,000 out of the big blind. Zinaty made the call, and Cartwright tanked for a bit before back-raising to 73,000. Nguyen immediately moved all in for 176,500, and Zinaty shot up out of his chair.

"Wow," he said. "If I bust both of you, I can go on vacation."

He eventually folded, and Cartwright unhappily called.

Cartwright: {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}
Nguyen: {a-Spades}{k-Hearts}

"Nice hand," Cartwright said.

Nguyen held as the board rolled out {10-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}, more than doubling to 385,000 chips. Cartwright slipped to just 130,000.
