Show Me Doumani

There was 26,000 in the middle by the {5-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{10-Spades} flop when the rest of the chips went in. It wasn't looking great for Michael Doumani - in fact it looked an awful lot like he'd just had his aces cracked.

Doumani: {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs} for aces
Big blind gentleman: {j-Diamonds}{j-Clubs} for a set of jacks

Turn: {10-Diamonds}

River: {a-Hearts}!

The aces-crackage was avoided at the last possible opportunity, and an extremely relieved Doumani was up to 272,000. The unlucky gent with the jacks had every right to feel sorry for himself as he hit the rail.
