Castro Does It The Hard Way

Eugene Castro moved all in for his last 114,000 from the cutoff position and Holger Kanisch called in the small blind.

Castro: {Q-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}
Kanisch: {A-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}

Kanisch spiked an ace on the {3-Clubs}{A-Spades}{4-Spades} flop and Castro had one foot out the door. However the {Q-Spades} turn and the {J-Clubs} river gave him a running two pair to find a remarkable double up. Both players sit with around 250,000 chips.
