Paralatore Holds; Doesn't

Level 23 : 12,000/24,000, 3,000 ante

Maria Paralatore doubled up when Blake Napierala shoved {10-Spades}{q-Clubs} on her {k-Diamonds}{q-Hearts} after a {k-Spades}{k-Hearts}{j-Diamonds} flop.

The {8-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} run out was safe for Paralatore and Napierala fell short.

He doubled back through her a hand later getting it in with {j-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} against {10-Clubs}{10-Spades} and finding a jack on the river.

Lisacchi Doubles

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 2,000 ante

Dave Lisacchi shipped it on a {3-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{2-Clubs} flop with {j-Clubs}{3-Clubs} only to find Maria Paralatore holding a wheel on {a-Hearts}{5-Clubs}.

The {3-Spades} turn gave Lisacchi some outs and the {4-Spades} river was one of them as he made a boat to sail away with a bunch of her chips.
