Friedman Finds Aces, Doubles

Perry Friedman came in for a raise under the gun, and action folded around to the hijack, who raised it up to 3,000. Action folded around to Friedman, who instantly went all in for 10,225, and the hijack called. The cards were flipped, and Friedman was on the right side of a classic cooler.

Friedman: {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}
Hijack: {k-Diamonds}{k-Spades}

The flop came out {3-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{9-Hearts}, and Friedman stayed out in front. The {q-Hearts} changed nothing, as neither player held a heart. The river brought the {10-Hearts}, and Friedman scored the double up to get closer towards his starting stack once again.
