Nieuwenhuis Cracks Aces to Double Up
Level 27
: 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Alexandru Danes opened from the cutoff, and didn't wait to call when Luke Nieuwenhuis on the button jammed for 1 260 000.
Luke Nieuwenhuis: A♣J♣ 
Alexandru Danes: A♠A♥
Nieuwenhuis started calling his friends to tell them that he was going to be eliminated, but after a flop of 6♣K♥4♣, he hit a lucky flush with the Q♣ turn to double up after the A♦ river. He immediately apologized to Danes.
