Nader Spikes a Two-Outer to Double Off Achour
Level 20
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
On a flop of J♦9♥A♠, Amjad Nader got his last 246,000 in the middle from the hijack and was up against Maher Achour on the button.
Amjad Nader: K♦Q♣ 
Maher Achour: A♥J♣
Achour was ahead with top two pair, while Nader was looking to complete a straight draw to stay alive. The 4♣ turn was no help, but the 10♥ fell on the river to give Nader his straight. Nader jumped out of his seat and let out a big fist pump as Achour snapped a photo of the board before surrending the pot.
"I had two tens," a tablemate told Nader, suggesting he had hit one of the last two in the deck.
