Two Pair vs. Two Pair

With the board already reading {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{3-Hearts}, Jason Somerville bet 625 from the big blind and was called by the player in the cutoff. The river brought the {2-Diamonds} and Somerville bet out again, this time for 1,825. The cutoff called again and their hands were revealed.

Somerville: {a-Spades}{3-Clubs}
Cutoff: {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}

The cutoff's two pair was best and he took the pot. After the hand Somerville was left with 10,000 in his stack and had no rebuy chips remaining.
