Akhundov Doubles Twice

Level 21 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante

In the second hand of the final table, Murad Akhundov shoved for 175,000 from under the gun and Fedor Holz isolated from two seats over with a raise to 400,000.

Akhundov: {K-Clubs}{4-Clubs}
Holz: {A-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}

The board ran out {10-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{K-Hearts}{4-Hearts} and Akhundov doubled.

Exactly one hand later, Steve O'Dwyer shoved and Akhundov called all in for 540,000 out of the big blind.

Akhundov: {K-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}
O'Dwyer: {A-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}

The player from Azerbaijan faced the very same hand, same suits, in back-to-back hands and got there again after a board of {7-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}{K-Clubs} to double up for the second time in a row.
