Tuthill Doubles Through Knecht

Donald Offord got things started in this hand with a middle-position raise to 50,000. David Tuthill went all in for 23,000 from the button, which is when Kyle Knecht raised to 300,000, from the big blind, causing Offord to fold.

Tuthill: {a-Diamonds}{j-Spades}
Knecht: {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}

Tuthill needed to improve and wasn't able to do so on the flop, which came {4-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{8-Hearts}, nor dd he find any help on the turn, which came {7-Clubs}. However, the {a-Clubs} on the river was all Tuthill needed to boost himself back up to 80,000 in chips. Meanwhile, Knecht has 1,100,000 or so.
