Level 20
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Tarmo Tammel moved all in for 175,000 under the gun, Jean-Vincent Lehut reshoved in the hijack, and the rest of the table folded.
Tarmo Tammel: A♦K♣
Jean-Vincent Lehut: A♠J♠
The 5♣3♠3♣ flop was safe for Tammel, but Lehut caught the J♦ on the turn to make two pair as Tammel prepared to make his exit. The river, though, was the K♠ and Tammel turned away in disbelief as he spiked a higher two pair to double up, leaving Lehut with just 5,000.
"Always a sweat," tablemate Kubanychbek Abakirov said.
"It wasn't a sweat. I thought I was out," Tammel replied.
