Hieu Luu opened for 125,000 from the cutoff and Tom Schneider called from the big blind.

The flop was {A-Hearts} {6-Hearts} {2-Diamonds}. Schneider check-called Luu's 225,000 continuation bet. The turn came the {8-Clubs} and Schneider led out for 400,000. Luu moved all in and Schneider made the call for his remaining 1,560,000.

"What do you have, baby?" squealed Schneider's wife Julie from the rail.

"I have two pair. He has a flush draw."

"So what do we need?"

"The king of spades would be nice."

"King of spades! King of spades!" cried a very excited Julie.

Boom! The {K-Spades} hit the river and Schneider doubled up to 3.8 million.

"Yeah, baby! That's what you do! Stack 'em up! Stack 'em up!" screamed Julie.

After the hand, Luu was down to 2,470,000.
