Jaka Wins Classic Race to Double

Level 61
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 0 ante

Darius Samual opened to 175,000 on the button and was three-bet by Faraz Jaka to 525,000.
Samual then shoved to put Jaka all in for his last 2,295,000 and Jaka called.
Faraz Jaka: A?K?
Darius Samual: Q?Q?
The A?5?K? flop vaulted Jaka into the lead with two-pair and left Samual drawing slim.
The 4? turn and 6? river bricked out for Jaka, who gained new life in the match after doubling up to nearly even.
