Botelho Doubles Through Charette

Simon Charette opened to 13,500 from middle position and Paul Botelho went all in for his last 75,000 from late position. Charette asked for a count and called.

Charette: {A-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}
Botelho: {9-Clubs}{9-Hearts}

"I may actually lose one of these," Charette said, referring to the race situation he was in.

Sure enough, the board ran out {2-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{10-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{8-Spades} and Botelho's nines held, doubling him up.

Charette is still our chip leader, however, with 660,000.
