Johnson Doubles Through Sankari

Level 8 : 300/600, 600 ante

The flop was reading {k-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{2-Spades} and there was about 13,000 in the middle when the player in middle position checked along with Charles Johnson from the hijack. Ghassan Sankari bet 5,000 from the button and the player in mid-positon folded but Johnson check-raised all in for 20,500. Sankari thought for a long while, then made the call.

Charles Johnson: {3-Hearts}{2-Hearts}
Ghassan Sankari: {a-Spades}{j-Clubs}

Sankari had ace-high and Johnson had a pair of deuces. The turn came the {a-Hearts} giving Sankari the lead with a pair of aces but that didn't last long as the {2-Clubs} completed the board and Johnson took down the pot with trip deuces.
