Chevalier Finds Double Through Brennan

Level 18 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

With one spot away from everyone in Bally's ballroom making the money, Hector Chevalier and Kenneth Brennan played for stacks preflop. Chevalier had slightly less chips, and was the player at risk.

Hector Chevalier: {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts}
Kenneth Brennan: {a-Spades}{8-Spades}

The table was surrounded by people trying to follow the action, and share in the bubble excitement. When the board ran out {q-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{j-Clubs}, the suited ace of Brennan was only good for middle pair while Chevalier scooped with a flopped top pair.

Chevalier raised his fist in the air and pointed at Brennan saying, "He deserves it!".
