Hunichen Finds a Double

Level 5 : 150/300, 50 ante

The action folded to the button who raised it up to 700. Chris Hunichen was in the big blind and three-bet to 2,200 only to have the button shove all in. Hunichen instantly made the call and was the player at risk for 10,500.

Chris Hunichen: {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}
Opponent: {7-Hearts}{7-Clubs}

Hunichen was in the lead and would need to dodge a seven if he wanted to make another deep run like his second-place finish last year. The board ran out {q-Spades}{8-Hearts}{9-Spades}{4-Spades}{2-Diamonds} and Hunichen secured himself a full double up.

The entries have continued to roll in throughout the day and here is a look at the latest few.
