Long Doubles Through Press

Level 35 : 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante

Robert Calabrese raised to 1,700,000 from the hijack and Jonathan Press shoved for 8,100,000 in the cutoff. John Long called for his last 3,675,000 for Calabrese to fold.

"How much?" Press asked before the cards were revealed.

John Long: {k-Clubs}{10-Spades}
Jonathan Press: {a-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}

"Oh," Press commented when he saw the cards.

The board ran out {6-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} for Long to hit top pair on the flop which caused Press to go into a pretty foul-mouthed rant against Long for making the call.
