Craig Marquis Doubles Through Dean Hamrick

[user25067]

Peter Eastgate raised to 750,000, Dean Hamrick reraised to 2.1 million, and Craig Marquis tanked for quite a while before moving all in. The Tournament Director approached the table and cut down Marquis' stacks to get an accurate count for the amount of the all-in -- 3.39 million. Eastgate folded and the action was back on Hamrick. He made the call and the crowd got on their feet.

Marquis: {A-Spades}

Hamrick:

The flop was {J-Hearts}

and Marquis needed an ace or running straight or flush cards to win. The turn was the {4-Hearts}

and the crowd exploded in a collective "Ohhhhhh," as Marquis picked up a flush draw. The river was the {5-Hearts}

and the entire room went ballistic as Marquis made his flush and doubled through Hamrick.

Marquis is up to about 11.2 million while Hamrick fell to 6 million.
