Curtis Early Doubles Through Russell Spaid

Dan Lu raised to 33,000 from late position. Russell Spaid reraised to 103,000 from the button and Curtis Early pushed all in from the big blind for a total of 152,000. Lu threw his hand away but Spaid made the call. The players showed:

Spaid: {A-Diamonds} {K-Spades}
Early: {J-Clubs} {J-Hearts}

It was a race situation and Early took a huge lead when the flop came {J-Diamonds} {4-Clubs} {2-Hearts}. The turn and river came the {3-Hearts} and {8-Diamonds} respectively and Early doubled to just over 350,000.
