Dan Owen Doubles Into the Millionaire's Club

Level 23 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

After grinding out a shorter stack from the start of the day Dan Owen has now joined the millionaire's club.

It happened on a board of {6-Spades}{7-Hearts}{K-Hearts}{3-Clubs}. Owen had moved all in for a total of 339,000. In the seat to his left Eric Kurtzman was in the tank. After about two minutes of thinking it over, Kurtzman made the call, but he wasn't happy with what he saw.

Kutzman: {K-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}
Owen: {A-Spades}{A-Diamonds}

Kurtzman had top pair with a good kicker, but it was no match for Owen's aces. The board bricked off with the {8-Diamonds} on the river and Owen was able to double huge into the exclusive millionaire's club.
