Secondary Table Hand #188-189: Miracle Double for Piccioli
Hand #188: Antoine Saout opened with a raise to 1,200,000 from under the gun. Action folded around and Benjamin Pollak put out a three-bet to 4,000,000 on the button. Everyone folded and Pollak was able to take down the pot.
Hand #189: Bryan Piccioli opened shoved all in from the small blind for 8,650,000. Saout thought for a bit, shrugged, then called from the big blind and the hands were tabled.
Piccioli: 
Saout: 
The flop came down 
putting Piccioli in a deep hole as Saout flopped trips. The 
on the turn didn't help him improve either. But the river was the 
and Piccioli's rail exploded with a cry of cheers and screams as he hit a miracle two outer to make a full house.
"It's an 888 conspiracy!" Someone on Piccioli's rail yelled.
Piccioli doubled to over 17 million after being the shortest stack in the tournament just moments before. Saout's stack is still healthy despite the hit, as he sits with just over 44 big blinds.
