Russell Spaid Doubles Up

Russell Spaid raised to 40,000 from under the gun. Action folded around to Edward Salazar in the big blind and he reraised to 80,000. Spaid pushed all in for 217,000 total and Salazar made the call. The players showed:

Spaid: {K-Spades} {K-Clubs}
Salazar: {A-Diamonds} {K-Hearts}

The board helped neither player and Spaid doubled to about 440,000 chips. Salazar was left with just under 200,000.
