Aces Cracking Aces

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 0 ante

Jesse Rockowitz and Chris Flint got all the chips in before the flop, and Rockowitz had the larger of the two stacks by a fairly wide margin.

Rockowitz: {A-Spades}{A-Diamonds}{J-}{8-}
Flint: {A-Hearts}{A-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}

Since both players had aces, a chop was decently likely, but the board ran out {8-Hearts}{3-Spades}{2-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{J-Clubs} to give Flint the nut straight and he doubled up.
