Horvatich Doubles Through Michaelis

From the UTG +1 position, Steven Michaelis raised to 77,000 before John Horvatich re-raised from next door, making it 227,000 to go. All the other players got out of the way before Michaelis called, making it head-up to the flop of {6-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{6-Spades}. From there, Michaelis snap-shoved and Horvatich insta-called.

Horvatich: {Q-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}
Michaelis: {J-Spades}{J-Clubs}

The turn and river ran out {8-Diamonds}, {7-Diamonds} and Horvatich doubled up.
