Sokoloff Snags a Double

Paul Sokoloff was under the gun when he shoved his stack all in, holding 165,000 in chips. When the play was folded around to Thomas Conway in the small blind, he would shove his even larger stack in the middle. The big blind folded and the two players tabled their hands.

Sokoloff: {10-Diamonds}{10-Spades}
Conway: {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}

The {10-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{7-Hearts} flop was great for Sokoloff and the {a-Clubs} turn and the {6-Diamonds} river would ensure he would take the double up.
