Back-to-Back Doubles for Team Savakinas

In the first hand, Vincent Moscati of Team Moscati limped in on the button and Satoshi Tanaka of Team Savakinas checked his option.

The fireworks would start on the 7♠4♠3♣, when Tanaka check-raised a bet of 250,000 from Moscati to 700,000 and Moscati called.

Tanaka then moved all-in for 2,250,000 on the 10♣ turn and Moscati quickly called.

Satoshi Tanaka: 6♣5♦
Vincent Moscati: 10♥7♦

Tanaka flopped a straight and it was two pair for Moscati, who would need one of the remaining tens or sevens in the deck to fill up and take home the bracelets, but the J♥ on the river would give Team Savakinas the double.

In the second hand, Satoshi called on the button and Mascoti checked.

Again it was an action flop for the players as the dealer rolled out 10♦3♣J♦ and Satoshi three-bet all-in a check-raise from Moscati of 800,000.

Satoshi Tanaka: J♥3♥
Vincent Moscati: Q♦4♦

The K♠ on the turn created even more of a sweat, as it added straight outs to the flush outs of Moscati, but the J♣ river would close the door and give Team Savakinas another double.
