Vaillancourt Won't Go Away

Jamie Armstrong opened for 120,000 and action folded around to Vaillancourt who moved all in for around 900,000. After a few seconds of thinking Armstrong made the call and Vaillancourt was at risk.

Vaillancourt: {K-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}
Armstrong: {A-Spades}{9-Hearts}

A {7-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} flop fell out of the deck and it appeared that Vaillancourt was out of lifelines. A {Q-Hearts} on the turn though disproved that theory and Vaillancourt shot up to the lead. A {5-Hearts} on the turn secured Vaillancourt's double up.
