Nam Le Gets Big Double-up

The player under the gun raised to 600 and action folded around to Nam Le in the small blind. Le reraised all in for 5,000 total. The big blind passed and the initial raiser made the call. The players showed:

Le: {Q-Diamonds} {Q-Spades}
Opponent: {A-Spades} {J-Spades}

The community cards helped neither player, coming {K-Spades} {7-Spades} {3-Clubs} {6-Hearts} {4-Hearts}, and Le doubled up to just over 10,000 chips.
