Donato With a Quick Double
Nivel 21

Carmelo Donato got his stack of 455,000 into the middle preflop with Joshua McSwiney trying to send him home.
Carmelo Donato: A♦A♠ 
Joshua McSwiney: A♣Q♥
Donato looked poised to find an early double-up on Day 4 of the Main Event if his aces could hold up. The runout of Q♠J♣K♣9♣2♦ gave Donato a bit of a sweat with his pocket aces, but in the end, they held up, and a large portion of McSwiney's stack was sent over to Donato.
