Mangroe Turns Quads to Double
Level 24
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Vladimir Erceg raised to 65,000 from the cutoff, Firoz Mangroe three-bet jammed for 480,000 from the big blind and Erceg called.
Firoz Mangroe: Q?Q? 
Vladimir Erceg: A?7?
Mangroe was ahead and the 8?Q?7? flop improved him to top set. The table discussed Erceg's prospects of victory by hitting running spades, however, the Q? turn was the only spade in the deck that had Erceg drawing dead. The river landed the 4?; Mangroe's quads ensured him the full double.
Meanwhile Aliaksandr Shylko was eliminated, trimming the field to 32 players.
