Higgins Instantly Toppled by Pellicer

Level 25 : 20,000/40,000, 4,000 ante
Pedro Pellicer
Pedro Pellicer

Immediately after the Freitez-triple hand, Pedro Pellicer got involved in a HUGE pot with Simon Higgins to steal the chip lead so recently regained by the British player. It was all in preflop, Higgins making the final call of Pellicer's shove for over 1,600,000 with {9-Diamonds}{9-Spades}. He had a shot at eliminating Pellicer, who held {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}, but instead doubled him up, the board running out {A-Spades}{Q-Spades}{8-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{J-Spades}.

Pellicer now has nearly 3.5 million chips and the 'all-change!' theme for today is still running strong.
