Jontulovic Stays Alive With a Double Up
Level 24
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Maher Achour raised to 105,000 under the gun and Bogdan Jontulovic shoved for 515,000 from the small blind. Achour thought it over for a few moments before making the call.
Bogdan Jontulovic: K♥Q♦ 
Maher Achour: K♣J♦
Jontulovic was in a prime position to double-up. The flop of Q♥4♠3♦ put him firmly in the lead with top pair. The 10♥ turn gave Achour a straight draw, but the 10♦ didn't help Achour and Jontulovic doubled up with a pair of queens.
