Neckar Doubles Up!

With all the money in preflop, John Phan was going to need some help with his {A-Spades}{3-Clubs} against the dominant {A-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds} of Johnny Neckar.

The board ran out {10-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}{8-Spades}{2-Hearts}{8-Hearts} and Neckar finds a much needed double up to about 1,600,000, but still trails Phan who has 2,700,000.
