El Yaacoubi Four-Bets to Double-Up
Level 28
: Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Candido Cappiello raised to 320,000 in the cutoff. Frederik Thiemer then made it 975,000 to go on the button before Rachid El Yaacoubi moved in for 2,185,000.
Cappiello quickly let go of his cards but Thiemer made the call to put El Yaacoubi at risk.
Rachid El Yaacoubi: A♣Q♣ 
Frederik Thiemer: J♦9♦
El Yaacoubi paired up on the 5♠2♠Q♦ flop and locked up the pot on the 2♥ turn. The Q♥ river upgraded him to an unnecessary full house as he doubled up to roughly 30 big blinds.
