Kuether Wins Race

Ian Mack raised under the gun to 115,000 and action folded around to Joe Kuether in the cutoff. He has moved in a couple of times without getting called in the last hour or two and he just did so again by three-betting his stack of exactly 1.1 million. Mack went into the tank for nearly five minutes before deciding to make the call.

Mack: {j-Spades}{j-Clubs}
Kuether: {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}

The flop put Kuether in the lead when it came off {4-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds}, but he would have to sweat it out as two paint cards would hit the board. But the {q-Clubs} and {k-Clubs} were not what Mack was looking for and he sent about half of his stack over to the other side of the table.
