Hand #289 - Stanislav Alekhin Doubles Up

John Juanda has the button and min-raises to 100,000. Stanislav Alekhin then reraises to 300,000 and Juanda makes the call.

The flop comes {10-Clubs} {7-Hearts} {5-Clubs} and Alekhin leads out with a 350,000 bet. Juanda tanks, all the while shuffling a small stack of 5,000 chips before eventually announcing "All in." Alekhin makes the call and a showdown ensues:

Juanda: {Q-Diamonds} {10-Diamonds}
Alekhin: {J-Spades} {J-Clubs}

The {J-Hearts} on the turn put a quick end to the drama, as Alekhin cemented the double up, putting him at 4,610,000. Juanda dropped to 2,660,000 with the loss.
