Fierro Finds A Double Up

Nicolas Fierro was the chip leader for a while earlier in this tournament, and he entered today with 970,000. However, he was grinded down all the way 300,000 before he ended his slide. Fierro raised it up to 22,000 in middle position, and Alexandros Karnaos reraised to 45,000. Action folded back to Fierro, who went all in for 305,000 total. Karnaos made the call, and Fierro saw that he was in great shape.

Fierro: {q-Spades} {q-Clubs}
Karnaos: {a-Hearts} {j-Clubs}

Fierro would need to dodge an ace to continue on in the tournament, and he faded the flop, as it came out {k-Spades} {7-Clubs} {k-Clubs} . The {4-Spades} hit the turn, and the river brought the {2-Diamonds} . Fierro scored the double up, but is still just a bit below average chips, while Karnaos falls to around 200,000.
