Seidel Scores a Lucky Double

Level 12 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

In a three-way limped pot to the flop of {9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{4-Spades}, John Juanda checked out of the small blind and Erik Seidel moved all in for 142,000 in the big blind. Oleksii Khoroshenin moved in over the top from the button and Juanda said "I guess my pair is no good" and folded a four face up.

Erik Seidel: {K-Spades}{9-Hearts}
Oleksii Khoroshenin: {A-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}

The {K-Diamonds} turn improved Seidel to two pair, and the {5-Spades} on the river changed nothing anymore to see Seidel crack aces and double.
