Spitzberg Fades Spears; Doubles Again

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
Paul Spitzberg doubles
Paul Spitzberg doubles

Andy Spears and Paul Spitzberg were heads up on a flop of {5-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{9-Clubs}, and Spitzberg fired out a bet. Spears raised to an amount that was equivalent to the remainder of Spitzberg's stack. Spitzberg tanked for a bit, moved all in, and a pot-committed Spears called.

Spitzberg: {8-Spades}{8-Clubs}
Spears: {j-Clubs}{10-Clubs}

Spears wasn't thrilled when Spitzberg moved all in, but his spirits must've risen at the sight of his opponent's hand. Not only was his club flush draw alive, but he held two overs.

Despite having tons of outs, Spears failed to connect with the turn ({a-Spades}) or the river ({6-Hearts}), and Spitzberg shipped the 1.2 million-chip pot.
