Groofi Cracks Top Set For Massive Double

Level 4
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Ondrej Drozd, Asaf Groofi, and Cenk Nigbolu went to the turn on a board of when Groofi and Drozd got the rest of Groofi's 99,700 chips in the middle, while Nigbolu got out of the way.
Drozd showed for top set, but Groofi had
for a turned straight. Drozd needed the board to pair to avoid handing over a big chunk of his stack, but he got no help on the
river as Groofi doubled up.
"So many big turn cards for you today," a tablemate told Groofi after the hand.
"I had aces," Nigbolu admitted.
