Thunder in the Rio

A player in middle position raised to 2,100, Thomas "Thunder" Keller pushed all in for 10,800, and yet another player made the call. Once the original bettor was out of the way, the cards were turned over:

Keller: {10-}{10-}
Unknown Player: {A-Spades}{K-Spades}

When the cards ran out, there was an ace on board sending Keller home.
