Todd Hanks Doubles Through Matt Matros

Matt Matros raised to 30,000 from late position. Action folded to Todd Hanks in the small blind and he moved all in for 155,000 total. Matros made the call and the players showed:

Matros: {K-Hearts} {Q-Clubs}
Hanks: {A-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds}

The board ran out {8-Spades} {7-Spades} {5-Spades} {8-Hearts} {9-Clubs} and Hanks' ace-high was best. He doubled up to about 325,000 chips leaving Matros with roughly 620,000.
