Sterba Coolers Martin For a Double
Level 32
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Thibaud Martin raised to 400,000 in the cutoff before Jakub Sterba moved all in for 2,700,000 in the small blind. Martin took out his earbuds, confirmed the amount, then flicked in a chip to signify a call.
Jakub Sterba: A♥A♦ 
Thibaud Martin: A♣K♦
Sterba turned up aces, and Martin was left drawing thin after the J♠6♥5♠ flop. The 7♥ turn locked up Sterba's double-up, while the useless K♥ fell on the river, and Martin sent over the pot.
