Rodney Clemente was all in from middle position for 17,900 with AcQc, and he needed it to hold to stay alive against the 6h5h of the UTG+1 player.

The board came 4s4h3d9cQs, and the UTG+1 player flopped an open-ended straight draw, but improved no further. Clemente won the pot with two pair, queens and fours, to double up in chips.

Rodney Clemente  –  37,800  (47 bb)
