Allis Doubles Through Vedes....Again

Mike Allis went all in for his last 65,000 from under-the-gun. Action folded around to Tommy Vedes in the big blind, who said, "I'm not sure if I should look." He then tossed in a call and hands revealed a race situation.

Allis: {5-Clubs}{5-Spades}
Vedes: {J-Spades}{8-Clubs}

The {3-Spades}{K-Hearts}{8-Spades} flop put Vedes in the lead with a pair of eights. A {9-Diamonds} turn changed nothing and left Allis drawing to a five and only a five.

River: {5-Hearts}

Bingo!

Allis doubled through to 140,000 and chipped Vedes down to 380,000.
