Luke Brereton Doubles Up

Level 30 : 50,000/100,000, 15,000 ante

Michael Telker raised to 225,000 in middle position, Luke Brereton three-bet shoved from the cutoff for exactly 1,000,000, John Hanna reshoved from the small blind for about 3,000,000, and Telker folded.

Brereton tabled {6-Spades}{6-Clubs} and was flipping for his tournament life against Hanna's {A-Spades}{K-Spades}. The board ran out {9-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{2-Clubs}{7-Spades}{J-Clubs} and Brereton's pocket pair remained the best hand, so he scooped the pot for the double-up.
