Lucky Turn Gives Drivas Big Double

Level 39 : 500,000/1,000,000, 1,000,000 ante
Thomas Drivas

Thomas Drivas raised to 2,200,000 under the gun, Vlad Darie three-bet from the hijack, and Drivas four-bet shipped his 27,200,000. Darie had no problem to call as they met in a cooler.

Drivas: {q-Spades}{q-Hearts}
Darie: {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds}

Darie could seize a huge chip lead, should his hand hold, but the {2-Spades}{7-Spades}{2-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{9-Spades} board was a nasty one for Darie who had to watch the large pot, possibly worth six-figure equity, move to the other side of the felt.
