Charette Doubles Through Stout

Athanasios Polychronopoulos raised to 60,000 from under the gun and Matt Stout re-raised to 170,000 from middle position. Action folded around to Simon Charette who declared he was all in for a total of 505,000. Polychronopoulos folded and Stout called.

Charette: {q-Spades}{q-Clubs}
Stout: {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts}

It was a classic race situation but luckily for Charette the board ran out blanks when it came {6-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{6-Spades}{9-Diamonds} and he doubled to over a million in chips.
