Ruggeri Doubles With Pocket Aces
Nivel 16
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Umberto Ruggeri raised to 16,000 under the gun and was called by the player in the next seat before Tom Verbruggen squeezed to 40,000 from the cutoff. Ozgur Arda then cold four-bet to 90,000 and the action was back on Ruggeri. Ruggeri did a bit of inventory before he five-bet shoved for 226,000. Everyone folded, apart from Arda, who made the call to put Ruggeri at risk.
Umberto Ruggeri: A♠A♦ 
Ozgur Arda: Q♣Q♠
Ruggeri was a dream spot to more than double up if he could fade a queen. A safe runout of 4♠6♠5♦4♣10♥ gave Ruggeri the winner, and a large portion of Arda's chips were sent over to him.
