Saul Knocks Marchese out

Kevin Saul raised to 6,000 from the button and Tom Marchese decided to three-bet him to 12,000. Saul moved all in and Marchese made the call putting his tournament life at risk.

Saul showed {Q-Spades}{J-Clubs} against Marchese's {A-Hearts}{5-Hearts} and the board ran out {5-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds} giving Saul a winning pair of queens. Saul moves on to the next round in which he will play against Vanessa Selbst.
