Nguyen Wins Double Through Devonshire

Level 34 : 150,000/300,000, 40,000 ante

Anton Makievskyi raised to 700,000 on two consecutive hands (button and hijack), and earned the blinds and antes both times. On the next hand, Phil Collins opened for 725,000 from under the gun, and that worked the same trick, adding a few chips to his stack.

Then it was Bryan Devonshire's turn to raise -- 700,000 from the cutoff -- but instead of folds all around, his raise was met with an all-in reraise by Khoa Nguyen from the button for 3.86 million. It folded back around and Devonshire called.

Devonshire: {K-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}
Nguyen: {A-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}

The flop came {4-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{3-Spades} and Nguyen remained ahead. The turn was the {10-Diamonds} and Nguyen just had one card left to fade. The river brought the {10-Clubs}, and Nguyen doubles to about 8.2 million. Devonshire now has about 3.5 million.
