Moron Doubles Through Jaka; Messere Advances

Level 17
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 0 ante

Ignacio Moron was already all-in preflop on the button and at risk against Faraz Jaka for approximately 70,000 total.
Ignacio Moron: 8?8?
Faraz Jaka: A?Q?
It was a race, but the 5?4?J?10?J? runout kept Moron best with his pair and he doubled up to stay alive.
At another table, Joao Vieira was eliminated by Owen Messere.
