Wang's Ace-High Holds to Earn Him a Double-Up
Level 35
: Blinds 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante
Yuhan Wang raised to 1,600,000 from the button and Christophe Vincent three-bet jammed from the small blind for 21,025,000. Once the big blind folded, Wang called for his stack of 9,325,000.
Yuhan Wang: A♦Q♦ 
Christophe Vincent: J♦10♦
Vincent made a move with jack-ten and Wang held the best hand for now with ace-queen. Wang needed a safe runout to double through Vincent.
Neither player was able to improve on the 5♣2♠5♥K♦9♠ runout, which meant Wang doubled up to 20,000,000, while Vincent was down to just under 12,000,000.
