Shak's Aces Hold for a Big Double-Up

Perry Green's last final table at the WSOP was back in 1997, when he finished 3rd in a $3,000 pot-limit hold'em event. He has some work to do if he wants to make tonight's final table after recently doubling up Dan Shak.

Green opened to 40,000 pre-flop before Shak, in the small blind, raised pot to 136,000. Green asked how much the raise back to him was, then called to a flop of {j-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{3-Clubs}. Shak immediately moved all in for 168,000 and Green called.

Shak: {a-Diamonds}{a-Spades}{2-Clubs}{5-Spades}, a pair of aces and the nut low draw
Green: {a-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{q-Hearts}, the nut flush draw, a straight draw, and the second-nut low draw

Green wasn't able to catch any of his cards on the {3-Hearts} turn or the {10-Hearts} river. He was forced to pay a double-up to Shak, who now sits behind 610,000 in chips. Green himself is down to 275,000.
