Fong Raises the Bar

Level 19
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Gal Bar raised to 16,000 and Matthieu Fong moved all in for 122,000.
"I think this is a call," said Bar before moving his chips into the middle. The two players flipped their cards, with Fong at risk.
Matthieu Fong: A?Q?
Gal Bar: K?Q?
Fong had Bar dominated and the board ran out 9?5?4?A?9? to give him a pair of aces on the turn and the double up.
