Marco Johnson Doubles Up

Preflop, Marco Johnson made a raise to 125,000 and Alexandre Gomes reraised. Before he could get the raise out, Johnson announced all in and Gomes called.

Johnson: {J-Clubs} {J-Spades}
Gomes: {A-Spades} {Q-Spades}

The flop was {K-Clubs} {2-Clubs} {9-Clubs}, giving Johnson a flush draw to go along with his pair. The turn fell the {J-Hearts}, giving Johnson a set, but also now giving Gomes a straight draw. The river fell the {7-Spades} and Johnson doubled up to 5,020,000 in chips. Johnson is now the chip leader.
