The Short Stacks Keep Doubling

Level 30 : 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

Antoine Labat made it 325,000 to go first to act with the {K-Spades}{Q-Hearts} and Hak-Hyun Lee in the small blind shoved for 800,000 with the {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}. Aleem Kanji in the big blind folded the {A-Clubs}{5-Hearts} and Labat called after getting a count.

The {9-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{4-Spades} flop gave Lee top set and he locked up the double with the {5-Spades} turn, the {8-Hearts} river was already meaningless.
