Ohl, Thumm Earn Doubles

Level 18
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Christophe Morbee three-bet to 52,000 in the small blind and Birger Ohl moved all in for 189,000 in early position. Morbee tanked for a minute before calling.
Birger Ohl: A?K?
Christophe Morbee: A?J?
Ohl finished with two pair on the 9?Q?9?K?2? board and Morbee handed over a double up.
At the same time on another table, Niclas Thumm was all in for 164,000 from the button and up against Konstantyn Holskyi in the big blind.
Niclas Thumm: A?Q?
Konstantyn Holskyi: A?3?
Thumm had Holskyi dominated as the board ran out 9?8?4?5?A?. Both players hit top pair, but Thumm's queen-kicker was enough to earn him a double up.
