Shen Scores Huge Double Through Normand

After an open by David Shaw to 20,000, Derek Normand raised to 165,000, leaving 1-5k chip behind. 

Hongying Shen quickly called behind him for less and the rest of the table folded. 

Shen: 10♣10♠
Normand: A♣8♠

Shen would need to hold to stay alive, and the runout of J♠9♠2♦Q♥7♥ was pure to score her the double. 

Meanwhile, Shaw was kicking himself for folding queen-ten. 

Shen - 310,000
Normand - 26,000
