Huge Double for Aguiar

Jonathan Aguiar doesn't need music to stack heaps.

Aguiar opened to 1,200 from under the gun and the action folded to Benjamin Lefew who re-raised to 6,300. The blinds folded and Aguiar made the call.

The dealer flopped {A-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{10-Clubs} and Aguiar checked to Lefew who continued for 8,000. Aguiar tanked momentarily before raising to 19,400.

"How much do you have behind?" Lefew asked after thinking for a minute or so.

Aguiar counted his stacks of blue T100 and purple T500 chips before answering, "About 31 (thousand)."

Lefew moved all-in and Aguiar's eyes lit up as he blurted, "Call."

Aguiar tabled {4-Hearts}{4-Spades} for bottom set and Lefew opened {A-Diamonds}{K-Spades} for just a pair of aces. The turn ({2-Spades}) and river ({7-Hearts}) blanked and Aguiar held the winner.

After counting the stacks officially, Aguiar actually had 43,600 and after that hand he sits with about 110,000.
