Godzdanker's Jacks Hold Up
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Marian Virlanuta raised from early position to 30,000 and Vadzim Godzdanker three-bet the button to 100,000. When it got back to Virlanuta, he shoved, and Godzdanker called for his stack of 325,000.
Vadzim Godzdanker: J♣J♠ 
Marian Virlanuta: 9♣9♦
Godzdanker was well in the lead and survived the runout as the board of A♦A♠K♠8♥3♠ kept his pocket jacks ahead, which earned him a double-up and put a small dent in the mountain of chips in front of Virlanuta.
