Spieckermann Rockets to a Double
Level 23
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Valeriano Toledano raised to 50,000 under the gun and Davit Mikhanashvili called in the hijack. Claus Spieckermann then moved all in for 475,000 in the big blind and Toledano quickly folded, but Mikhanashvili took a minute before calling.
Claus Spieckermann: A♠A♥ 
Davit Mikhanashvili: 8♥8♠
Spieckermann had woken up with two aces and improved to top set on the A♣5♥4♠ flop. The rest of the board ran out 6♥2♣ and he secured the double up.
