Marcon Cracks Aces To Double Up

Peter Biebel raised from under the gun to 16,000 before Marco Marcon moved all in for about 100,000 in total. Biebel snap-called as the cards were tabled:

Biebel: {A-Clubs}{A-Hearts}
Marcon: {J-Spades}{J-Diamonds}

The board fell {6-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{9-Clubs}{J-Hearts} and a mirculous jack on the river keeps Marcon alive to double up to over 200,000 chips.
