Thornton Turns to Double Through Lopes
Level 27
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
John Thornton moved all in for 470,000 from middle position and was snap-called by Bruno Lopes, in the big blind.
John Thornton: 6♠6♥ 
Bruno Lopes: A♥J♥
The flop brandished the J♣ in the window and Thornton thought it was all over. However, the 6♣4♠ quickly followed behind to give him a set. The A♠ turn gave a small sweat for Lopes, but the 10♦ river confirmed Thornton's double.
